In honor of the National Day of Prayer, I have written "Just Pray", a simple song that seeks to inspire people to turn to God for hope, healing, grace, and an assurance that He really is there.
Hi Shawna, thank you for creating this beautiful song. I'm just wondering if you have a minus 1 track of this song? May God bless amd be with you always with your ministry. 🙏🙏🙏
I love the song, but you're sending the wrong message about Jesus Christ with this video. You have a Muslim praying, a Jew praying, and it looks like a Monk praying and possibly a Buddhist. The Muslim is facing and praying East, the direction the antichrist will arise from. The big black box Muslims pray to in Mecca faces East. They are praying to Satan, allah, a fake god. The god of the Jews is not believed to be Jesus Christ. You're making it look like there is only one God amongst all these false religions. That is so far from the truth, and you're sending the wrong message. We are all God's children but we do not all serve the one and only living God, Jesus Christ. Why are you doing this? Pls take this video down. The song is great, but the video is not.
@@letsgobrandon4504 Thank you for taking the time to comment. This the reason there are so many people of different faith traditions in the video - You said it in your comment - We are ALL God's children. I realize that these people may be praying to a being that is different from the God you believe in. But if God truly is our loving Father, which I believe He is, then He would hear ALL of our prayers - whether Muslim, Jew, Monk, Buddhist, or Christian. Even Christians differ with each other on the definition of God. None of us come close to fully understanding Him. But just because we may not have a complete and correct knowledge of Him, I cannot believe that He would turn a deaf ear to our needs or withhold His love from us.
You and your mom have written a beautiful song, but you're sending the wrong message with this video. There's a Muslim praying facing East to their fake god allah, who is basically Satan. The antichrist will arise from the East, the direction these people pray. They pray to the big black box in Mecca, which faces East. This is Satanic. You have a Jew praying to a god. It looks like there is also a monk and a Buddhist praying to their respective gods. There might be a Hindu praying in this video. Jesus Christ is the one and only true God, and that is not the message you're sending with this video. The words of the song are great and true, but the video is not. We are all God's children, but we all don't serve the same God like you make it look in this video. This is actually blasphemous, a very serious sin. If I have this wrong, then please let me know, but it's pretty obvious and it's clear there's a Muslim praying to allah. Take this video down. Christ is not pleased.
I love ❤that this song emphasizes we are all children of God and that we can always pray regardless of our race or nationality. May we all pray for peace, joy and love.
❤ this song! I know God lives and listens to our prayers. Answers will come to the inquires of our minds and hearts one day. Please have faith until we all have the knowledge of why things happen as they do.
I love the diversity in this video- Catholic nuns, Evangelicals, Anglican, military, medical... Everyone ❤️ Maybe even an atheist will see themselves in this. I still remember the first time I tried praying as an atheist. I said "God, if you're actually real, I'm heartbroken and overwhelmed and I don't want to feel like this anymore." That's all I said but almost immediately felt a little ray of hope.
I love this story. Thank you for sharing it. I had someone criticize that there's a Muslim in a song that's so obviously Christian. But it seems to me that if God is the Father of us all, then He hears ALL our prayers.
This song teaches me that anytime anywhere we need to pray and be patience and at the right time God will answer our prayers because He is there when we're searching for answers He is with us all we need to is Just pray !!!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely beautiful! This will be on our sacrament list for future special musical numbers! What a wonderful song to bring the spirit of the Lord into our lives! Thank you Shawna,for honoring the gift you've been given.You are an instrument in HIS hands❤
Shawna, thanks for another gem! (By the way, one of your songs was performed at a Youth Music Festival we had last week. So neat! Even more neat for me was that the lone song I have written was performed right after yours. I felt honored to be on the same program as you.)
This is easily one of my favorite songs Shawna! I've needed the lyrics and the melody in my life for a while now. So thankful they are finally at home in my soul. #prayerchangeseverything
Sister Edwards you did it again, touching many souls with this beautiful song and video, people can feel the spirit through it. Thanks for help to make the Kingdom grows.
Dearest Shawna , Thank You For Sharing Your Wonderful Videos. Listening To All Your Videos Reminds Of Me Being In Church, While Listening To All These Wonderful Children Sing Warms My Inner Soul. Your Truly A Blessing Unto Our Lord And Many Out There. May Our Lord Continue Blessing All Who Sing , May He Contiue Bringing Your Lovely Channel To Light. God Bless, Sincerely Joy - God has a Plan for Each of us, I truly Believe that the Best way to start the day off is with the Lord. When we put our Relationship with Him first, it strengthens us to Live Victoriously Each and Every day.,
Wow, love this song! So beautiful, and a perfect reminder that no matter where we are or what we're going through - "look to God and pray" Thank you Shawna!!
I have loved your work for so many years and I can say you make so difficult for me to have a favourite song because they are all so amazing a fill my heart and my house with the Holy Spirit. Thank you to all who worked on this song and for the way I can feel God's love for me and answers to prayers through your work ❤
This new song is greatly needed in our world today! Touching, beautiful and inspiring! Thank you again for sharing such a heart felt song. You are amazing!♥
Absolutely beautiful! Such a great message for everyone. You have such a wonderful gift of saying what needs to be heard and felt through music. Thanks for sharing.
This is so beautiful. Thank you so much for the reminder that He is always there, even when we don't feel like He should be or that we're not worthy. Going through some stuff now and I find myself skipping my personal prayers. BIG MISTAKE! Your song is a gentle, beautiful reminder that we (I) can pray anytime, anywhere, and God will always hear us. Thank you.
Omg!!! This is perfect for our hero camp! I couldn’t find the right one for the brother of Jared, then this popped up on my feed. It’s perfect! We use your music every year, Thank you ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this song. Ive listened to it dozens of times in the last 4 days since you uploaded it. It has helped so much. It reminds me of simple profound truths and His love.
Thanks for this beautiful song it's what a need for my season of life and also a blessing for it help me impart faith in God to my students. May God continue to bless your gift that changes lives.❤
This is so powerful prayer song I've ever heard. I'm almost in tears listening to this song. Thank you so much for posting / sharing this. God graciously bless you 🙏.
It was wonderful to watch this at the National Day of Prayer program tonight. ❤️ Thank you! Our 10 year old asked if we could listen to it again on RUclips.
Shawna, thank you so much for this beautiful song. The lyrics are absolutely beautiful and true. You don't know how badly my family and I need this reminder JUST PRAY. PRAYER POWER IS REAL. Again, thank you and God Bless.
You're welcome! It's a privilege for me to share my faith through song - and to work with so many good people in the process of recording them. And thank you for your kind words.
Yes, he does, but the message of this video is blasphemous. It makes it look like we are all praying and serving the same god. We are NOT serving the same god. There is only one true God, and that is Jesus Christ. Muslims face East when praying to their fake god allah. The antichrist will arise from the East. Think about the message this lady is sending. She's making it look like the god we all serve is the same, and He is not.
I absolutely love this song!! I listen to it multiple times every day and have heard it well over a hundred times in the past month. For some reason it touches my heart and soul in a way that few songs do. You are an amazing song writer!! You are also so blessed to work with so many incredibly talented singers. Thank you!!
Woman, you have a gift. This is pure inspiration from Heaven. I'm trying not to be sad that I can't write songs as good as you can, so I will just rejoice that someone like you actually exists. You are a blessing to us all. Thank you for all the work and effort you put into every single note. I love you.❤
Wow. If I could "favorite" a comment, I would do it on this one. That is the best compliment. Thank you so much. I have to give a lot of credit to my son, Gary. We wrote this song together. Thanks again for writing something that made my day.
Your influence by Mendelssohn (and his predecessors) is wonderfully adapted to words for Christ. Thank you! I heard someone else in there too on this rainy morning but need more time to wake up to think about it. Feeling like you made it... Some say love, it is Jesus Christ 🌹.
sheesh /SHēSH/ used to express disbelief or exasperation. As in 'Sheesh! I can't believe how beautiful that song was and how it hit me to the core!' (and I hope said little red car survives the gaggle teenagers sharing it 😬)

Beautiful song. I hope to learn it with my young children and sing it one day

Always glad to hear when people like the songs. Thank you!
I love this song 🎵 about prayer and that it shows people of different religions and nationalities. God loves us all.
Yes, he does!
Yes, he does, but the message of this video is blasphemous. It makes it look like we are all praying and serving the same god. We are NOT serving the same god.

That is our next plan, actually. We are going to translate and record a lot of the songs in Portuguese. And then I would love to visit Brazil!
