notes

1st verse
It’s easy or so it sometimes seems,
to believe, that when you chase your dreams.
If you feel the fire, play it once or twice,
you never chase your tail on the road to paradise.
Then you see it doesn’t mean a thing.

Chorus 1
So you say a prayer, to miss an early grave,
oh you say a prayer, like someone who’s a slave.
Yeah you say a prayer, till midnight turns to day,
Oh you say prayer - and try to make your way.

2nd verse
Next time you don't know what to do,
when everything begins to come unglued,
if your situation is more than you can bear,
make your destination to the Lord in prayer.
When you share with him all your cares,
You’ll know, He’s listening, you’ll know He’s there.

Chorus 2
And you say a prayer, all your snares will come undone,
Oh say prayer, like a bullet from a gun.
Yeah you say a prayer, tellin' all on your mind,
when you say prayer, the answer's what you find.

Bridge
Now I lay me down to sleep, pray the Lord my soul to keep.
And if I should die before I wake, pray the Lord my soul to take
