    Story Behind the Song
    The original 1997 production of "Hear My Prayer" was recorded at Pittsburgh East Full Gospel Church while the band "Petra" was setting up and conducting sound checks prior to a sold-out concert. In May, 2002, B.J. Collins added orchestration, backing vocals, and percussion to the mix, completing plans for the song five years after recording the original tracks.

    The very first 70x7 song, this adaptation of Psalm 102 is the prayer of an afflicted man, when he is faint and pours out his lament before the Lord. Because God is living, eternal, and unchanging, we can trust Him to help His people in this generation just as He helped His people in past generations.
    about most. This recording features inspired performances by some dedicated musicians and this scripture is sure to touch your heart.

    Lyrics
    Hear my prayer, oh Lord, and help me come to you. Let my cry for help somehow make it through. Do not hide your face from me. Turn your ear to me. When I call your name, oh Lord, answer quickly please. For my days are gone like smoke. My bones burn like glowing coals. My heart's dry as desert grass. I'm skin and bones. I lie awake, oh Lord, an owl upon the roof. They taunt and curse my name, and ashes are my food. My drink is mixed with tears because of your great wrath. My days are dark as shadows. I wither like the grass. But forever on your throne, your name will stand alone. You will show your mercy when the time has come. All these stones are dear to us Lord. This very dust will move us to tears. Nations will fear the name of the Lord. Kings of the earth will all revere. Hear my prayer, oh Lord, and don't despise my plea. Write it down for all unborn to praise you on their knees. Look upon us from on high and save the ones condemned. We will gather round, oh Lord, and worship you again. In the course of my life, you broke me of my strength. You cut short my days, and I began to pray. You laid down the foundations of earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you will remain, and your years will never end. Never end. Never end. Never end.
