Prayin'

(الألبوم: Doctor Faith - 2011)

Frozen in time while the calendar pages
Are falling like leaves from a tree
Getting the sense I'm connected to something
And not sure what's happening to me
A catholic school kid in thrall to the altar
The rituals moved me somehow
I left it behind when I learned how to think
So it's funny that suddenly now I'm
Praying
Never thought I would be praying
Deep in my soul
Praying
Trying to surrender control
Most of the time I'm not asking for anything
Just like to sit for a spell
And open myself to the chance for some guidance
'cause thoughts in my head keep me in my own hell
Praying
Never thought I would be praying
Pompous head bowed
Saying
Beautiful words right out loud
Thank you
Thank you
Please be there
That's my favorite prayer
I think that the sages all down through the ages
Were right when they said god is love
Love is alive and I know it's inside me
And not some old man from above
So in the end let me hear you
Keep me near you
Grant me the wisdom to be at my best
Let me forgive so the world may be blessed
Praying
Never thought I would be praying
Safe and alone
Staying
Peaceful and still as a stone
Thank you for praying
May I forever be praying
Now it's begun
Praying
Knowing that we are all one
Amen
