There's a high, holy vocation needing workers everywhere;
'Tis the highest form of service: 'Tis the ministry of Prayer.
No one need stand idle, longing for a place in which to share,
Active service for the Master; There is always room in Prayer.
In these days of tribulation, wickedness pervades the air,
And the battles we engage in must be won through fervent Prayer.
There's no weapon half so mighty as that which intercessors bear,
Nor a broader field of service than the ministry of Prayer.
Do you see the millions who are perishing today,
Snatched as brands plucked from the burning? Do you long, yet seldom Pray?
Are you longing for revivals in the good old-fashioned way?
We must use the old-fashioned method -which has always been to Pray.
Do you long to meet the Savior and your loved ones in the air?
May His coming find us "faithful" in the ministry of Prayer.
Come and join the intercessors! Laurels, then, someday you'll wear;
For there is no higher service than the ministry of Prayer.
