[00:15.79]I can't quote the Bible
[00:19.54]I skipped Sunday school
[00:23.24]And I can't count the times I fell
[00:27.55]and broke the Golden Rule
[00:30.31]So I don't know if he listens
[00:33.92]Sometimes I wonder if he cares
[00:38.47]Maybe I'm just wishing
[00:41.50]'Cause I can't even prove he's there
[00:44.81]But I pray
[00:49.36]He'll watch over my children
[00:52.95]I pray
[00:56.47]Just to be a better man
[01:00.93]To find the strength to rise above
[01:04.41]To be there for the ones I love
[01:08.01]To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
[01:18.87]I pray
[01:26.61]Now I confess that I don't bow my head as often as I should
[01:34.70]Mostly just when times are bad, rarely when they're good
[01:41.63]And I don't hold with too much preachin'
[01:45.23]But I was raised up to believe
[01:49.31]That a man can't ever stand as tall
[01:52.80]As when he gets down on his knees
[01:55.61]So I pray
[02:00.51]He'll watch over my children
[02:04.15]I pray
[02:07.94]Just to be a better man
[02:11.97]To find the strength to rise above
[02:15.68]To be there for the ones I love
[02:19.19]To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
[02:29.58]I pray
[02:45.25]So I pray
[02:49.09]For a word that's gone half crazy
[02:53.01]I pray
[02:56.54]For every woman child and man
[03:00.33]To find the strength to rise above
[03:04.46]To teach each other how to love
[03:07.96]To forgive and be forgiven some sweet day
[03:21.25]I pray
[03:28.35]I pray
[03:38.75]
