I can`t quote the Bible
I skipped Sunday school
And I can`t count the times I fell, and broke the golden rule
So I don`t know if he listens
Sometimes I wonder if he cares
But maybe I`m just wishin`
`Cause I can`t even prove he`s there
(chorus)
But I pray
He`ll watch over my children
I Pray
Just to be a better man
To find the strength to rise above
To be there for the ones I love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
I confess that I don`t bow my head as often as I should
Mostly just when times are bad, rarely when they`re good
And I don`t hold with too much preachin`
But I was raised up to believe
That a man can`t ever stand as tall
As when he gets down on his knees
(2nd Chorus)
So I pray
For a world thats gone half crazy
I pray
For ever woman, child and man
To find the strength to rise above
To teach each other how to love
To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
I pray
I pray
