Makes no diference what the problem,
(I can go to God in prayer).
Yes, I have this blessed assurance,
(I can go to God in prayer).
He will take my gloom and sorrow,
(turn them into light).
He will comfort, strenghten and keep me,
[Chorus]
I can call Him when I need Him,
Our, Father, up in heaven;
I can go to God in prayer,
I can go to God in prayer.
[Verse 2]
Sometimes my burdens get so heavy,
(I can go to God in prayer).
I have found one who is so faithful,
(I can go to God in prayer).
He will take my gloom and sorrow,
(turn them into light).
He will comfort, strenghten, and keep me,
(I can go to God in prayer).
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
He can work it out, He can work it out;
(yes, He can),
(yes, He can),

I don't have no doubt, I don't have no doubt;
(yes, He can),

I know what God can do, He'll bring you safely through
(yes, He can),
(yes, He can),
(yes, He can),
(oh yes, He can).

Ann Nesby's "I Can Go to God in Prayer" is an uplifting and reassuring gospel song that emphasizes the power of prayer. The first verse acknowledges that problems are inevitable in life but insists that there's always a way out when one turns to God in prayer. The singer emphasizes her "blessed assurance" that God will take her gloom and sorrow and transform them into light. This gives her the comfort and strength to go through life's challenges.
The chorus emphasizes the accessibility of God, who is present and available to those who call on Him in prayer. Described as "Our Father, up in heaven," God is portrayed as a loving parent, always ready to listen and provide comfort. The second verse acknowledges that burdens can become unbearable, but there is one who is faithful enough to help bear them. As in the first verse, the singer emphasizes the transformative power of God, who can turn gloom and sorrow into light.

Wonderfully done. A singer indeed. Not a lot of yelling, screaming, extra runs. Just good old school clean singing. Ms. Nesby one of my favorites.❤
So sad the audience was so nonchalant. If she'd been somebody else. ( I won't call names) They would've been jumping up & down.
