I Asked the Lord

My version of the Catholic song "I Asked the Lord", words and music by Johnny Lange and Jimmy Duncan, arranged by Lou Halmy. Lyrics: I asked the Lord to comfort me When things weren't going my way. He said to me "I will comfort you And lift your cares away." I asked the Lord to walk with me When darkness was all that I knew. He said to me "Never be afraid, For I will see you through." I didn't ask for riches, He gave me wealth untold; The moon, the stars, the sun, the sky, And gave me eyes to behold. I thank the Lord for everything And I count my blessings each day. He came to me when I needed Him, I only had to pray. And He'll come to you if you'll ask Him to. He's only a prayer away.
