I like to include a hymn each year as part of my Singing Time, and I’m excited to include this Did You Think to Pray Flip Chart as part of our 2023 New Testament Primary Songs!
I love the sweet reminder throughout the song of different times of the day we might want to add more prayers into our lives and that prayer can be our go-to resource throughout our day!
To help make your planning even more efficient, you can see my 4-Year Come Follow Me Song Rotation chart. It will help you plan by year or as an overview with all 4 years side-by-side to best pick which songs to include in Singing Time this year!
Did You Think to Pray Flip Chart

Did You Think to Pray Lyrics
This song is published in the green LDS Hymn Book Page #140
You can find the Did You Think to Pray sheet music here.
Verse 1:
Ere you left your room this morning,
Did you think to pray?
In the name of Christ, our Savior,
Did you sue for loving favor
As a shield today?
Chorus:
Oh, how praying rests the weary!
Prayer will change the night to day.
So, when life gets dark and dreary,
Don’t forget to pray.
Verse 2:
When your heart was filled with anger,
Did you think to pray?
Did you plead for grace, my brother,
That you might forgive another
Who had crossed your way?
Verse 3:
When sore trials came upon you,
Did you think to pray?
When your soul was full of sorrow,
Balm of Gilead did you borrow
At the gates of day?
“Did You Think to Pray?”
Text: Mary A. Pepper Kidder, 1820–1905
Music: William O. Perkins, 1831–1902
