Prayed For Me

(album: Adam Sanders - 2018)

"And I keep getting this phrase from when I see ya and look at ya, and the Lord wanted me to say to you that you had the fight to get here. Now you're having to fight to stay here, but the fight is going to be over soon. And I feel like the Lord is getting ready to move in on your behalf. And he's getting ready to take you in a different direction that's gonna be unique to even you, it's gonna be a little challenging. It's not gonna be common, it's not gonna be set in order like somebody else has already done. But there's creativity inside of ya, there's a creator inside of ya, and God is getting ready to do a strong work, a powerful work, but a violent work and a forceful work. The kingdom of Heaven advances by force, and the forceful lay hold of it. And I feel like the Lord said you've been a fighter all your life. You had to scrap to get this and scrap to get that, and come from behind here and come from behind over there, and the Lord says now your coming into the fullness of what I have for you."

16, 11:47 trying to make it back home before midnight
Man, all I remember was thinking this is it, and seeing that ditch in the headlights
I woke up upside down, the flashlight holding pulling me out
Just some how I walked away, all I got to say

Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
Somebody must've sent one up somewhere above, yeah I believe
Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me

Ten years trying to make ends meet, out on my own barely getting by
Working hard, doing all I could do just to keep my dream alive
Racking up groceries on credit cards, Mama saying, "Son, you've come so far"
Looking back, I thank my lucky stars to be where I am today, yeah

Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
Somebody must've sent one up somewhere above, yeah I believe
Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me

And girl looking in your eyes tonight there ain't no doubt in my mind
That somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me

Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
Somebody must've sent one up somewhere above, yeah I believe
Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me

Somebody must've prayed, somebody must've prayed for me
