He’s Only A Prayer Away Lyrics

Verse 1
One day I heard the ancient story
Of a cross on a hill far away
And now I’ve a friend up in glory
And He’s only a prayer away

Chorus
O He never would say: ‘I’m too busy today’
Every tear, every care, He’s promised He will share
And although He’s the Lord of all glory
Yet He’s only a prayer away

Verse 2
Sometimes I don’t feel much like praying
But He speaks words of love just the same
And deep in my soul there starts flowing
Living waters, songs of praise to His name

Chorus
O He never would say: ‘I’m too busy today’
Every tear, every care, He’s promised He will share
And although He’s the Lord of all glory
Yet He’s only a prayer away

Verse 3
If I keep the cross e’er before me
As I die I will live day by day
If I sin, If I fall, He’ll restore me
For He’s only a prayer away

Chorus
O He never would say: ‘I’m too busy today’
Every tear, every care, He’s promised He will share
And although He’s the Lord of all glory
Yet He’s only a prayer away

Notes

The hymn He’s Only a Prayer Away beautifully emphasizes the intimate and accessible relationship Christians have with Jesus Christ through prayer. It assures believers that no matter the situation, Jesus is always near, ready to listen, comfort, and restore.

In the first verse, the hymn recounts the transformative power of the Gospel—the story of the cross—and the friendship believers gain with Christ in glory. This friendship is not distant; Jesus is described as being “only a prayer away,” highlighting the accessibility of His presence through prayer.

The chorus reinforces this truth, portraying Jesus as a compassionate and attentive Lord who is never too busy to respond. It reflects His promise to share in every tear and care, providing comfort and hope.

The second verse acknowledges human struggles, such as feeling reluctant to pray, yet celebrates Jesus’s love, which inspires praise and refreshes the soul with “living waters.”

In the third verse, the hymn focuses on the sustaining power of the cross, encouraging believers to keep their focus on Christ. It reassures them of forgiveness and restoration, even when they fall.

This hymn resonates deeply with Christians, reminding them of the faithfulness and nearness of Jesus, who is always ready to answer their prayers.
