The National Day of Prayer occurs every year on the first Thursday in May. Established by a joint resolution of Congress in 1952, “The President shall issue each year a proclamation designating the first Thursday in May as a National Day of Prayer on which the people of the United States may turn to God in prayer and meditation at churches, in groups, and as individuals.” As our nation struggles with foreign and domestic threats, economic insecurity, cultural tensions, and continual challenges to basic constitutional rights, millions will take time out of their daily schedules to intercede on behalf of their communities, their nation, and their leaders.

God was close to us, because God wanted to be close. Even after we got into trouble with sin and separated ourselves from His presence, he pursued us. He never let us out of His sight. God rescued humanity over and over again. God is still claiming his people today, and doing it by moving in with us, being close.

Each selection is rooted in congregational truth, written to serve the local church, and ready to be carried home and sung with confidence. This collection isn't about recreating a moment—it's about continuing it. These are songs meant to live beyond the gathering, forming the sound of weekly worship, strengthening churches, and reminding us that what God does in the room is meant to overflow into every community we serve.
