Pray

Dear God,



And I pray

I just can't sleep tonight
Knowing that things ain’t right
It's in the papers, it's on the tv
It's everywhere that I go
Children are crying
Soldiers are dying
Some people don’t have a home

But I know there’s sunshine behind that rain
I know there’s good times behind that pain, hey
Can you tell me how I can make a change

I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray

I lose my appetite, knowing kids starve tonight
Am I a sinner, cause half my dinner
is still left on my plate
Ooo I got a vision, to make a difference
And it's starting today

Cause I know there’s sunshine behind that rain
I know there’s good times behind that pain
Heaven tell me I can make a change

I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and

I pray for the broken-hearted
I pray for the life not started
I pray for all the lungs not breathing
I pray for all the souls in need
I pray, can you give em one today.

I just cant sleep tonight
Can someone tell how to make a change?

I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and I pray...
I pray... I pray...
I close my eyes and pray.

Amen.

Just days after presenting on my Advance English topic "Religion - Prayer in Christianity", I heard this song. Too bad I didn't hear it earlier (and too bad music can't be played while presenting) or I would have this music played in the background while I presented. :D

It isn't common to find such a beautiful English song. Nice tune, check. Meaningful lyrics, check. Touching and emotional song, check. Good voice, check.

About religion, bonus mark.
