Everyday I sit and pray to God above
That You’ll watch over me and my family
But everyday I seem to pray the same old thing
In the same old way, and I start to think

That maybe I should change
And find something better to say
But I’ve learned to believe
You always hear me when I pray

So I get down on my knees
‘Cause I’m stronger than these
Voices inside of my head
They try to deceive me
And make me believe
That I would be better instead
To take my requests and put them to rest
But You’re already one step ahead
You knew just what I would say
Before it was said

Every night I lie awake wondering
If You’re listening to ever heartbeat
You’ve told me that You know the deepest part of me
And You’ll watch over me and my family

So I guess I shouldn’t change
‘Cause You hear ever word that I say
And I know You are here
When I come to You this way

So I guess I shouldn’t change
‘Cause You hear ever word that I say
And I know You were here
When I knelt down today




Behind the Song:
“Michael’s inspiration for ‘Before it was Said’ came from a situation that His sister, Michelle, was going through back home in Oklahoma. She had been struggling to hear from God and Mike had been praying for her for quite some time. Writing these words was a way for Mike to express how he felt and at the same time encourage Michelle to press on.” - Jeromy Deibler (FFH)
