"Prayer" lyrics
Sometimes I puzzle about the spiritual
And why fear and trembling's always round
Seems the last time God pitched in down here
Was when pharaoh and his army was drowned
When I seek to unravel the sacred
I get perplexed and over whelmed
I'm not in tune with the ecclesiastical
Can't get a fix on the ethereal realm
When all is lost and we have no courage
And self reliance ain't gonna get us through
The old folks say well now all we can do is pray
Ah, perhaps that's the best thing we can do
I am not profound or perceptive
Most times I don't know what I'm saying
It's likely God don't need to hear my prayers
I just need to hear me praying
And why fear and trembling's always round
Seems the last time God pitched in down here
Was when pharaoh and his army was drowned
When I seek to unravel the sacred
I get perplexed and over whelmed
I'm not in tune with the ecclesiastical
Can't get a fix on the ethereal realm
When all is lost and we have no courage
And self reliance ain't gonna get us through
The old folks say well now all we can do is pray
Ah, perhaps that's the best thing we can do
I am not profound or perceptive
Most times I don't know what I'm saying
It's likely God don't need to hear my prayers
I just need to hear me praying
