Dear God (Prayer)

Oh God

I fall before your throne

I know you will answer me

Hear my cry for mercy

Do not remain silent

Nor turn a deaf ear

Do not stand aloof

See how the devil growl

With cunning, they conspire

Against your people

Plotting against those you cherish

Come they say

Let us destroy

Them as a nation

And that's why I pray

Clout over me

Cos I sink in miry depth

Where there ain't foothold

And the oceans has come

Up to my neck

Sweep them away

For they engulf me

Holding me back

Doesn't want me to go far

But I made you my dwelling

It only You I cherish

Through you the world is established

You that turn people back to the dust

Hooo

Thousand years in your sight

Yeah!!

Like a day has just gone by

Aaah!!

There's this troubles me

I want put to your face

Why! Devil on my shoulders?

Meddling in my affairs

The good I want to do

Lord I can not do

But the wrong I hate to do

God is what I do

I stuck in bog

Am so confused

Many on my mind

Don't know what to pursue

Doing this and that God

Going here and there

Look!!

I see terror on my side

They plot to take my life

B'cos of this Lord

An object of dread

To my closest friend

See

Lord am in depth

Everywhere is silent

I lift up my eyes

All I see is birds flying

Am doing what I should

And doing what I could

But my decisions

Doesn't result in actions

Lord am on my knees

So pls hear my plea

Can look to this sore

Your child looking sad

Devil crouching at my door

Running to your altar

Can't wait another second

For devil on my shoulders

For the havoc he wreck

Is so-so sad

Making all things

So complicated

Never get them easy

When I lie down

I think of how long

Before I get up

Night drags on

And I toss and

Turn until dawn

Remember Oh Lord

My life is a breath

I know my here on earth

Is just a little while

My heart ache with longing

All the time troubles

Waiting for liberation

In this hard battle

That's why am calling

Calling for liberation

Cos am trembling

Trembling like the sparrows

Fluttering like the doves

Settling in my home

Quiet to the mocks

Leaving all my all

All to you God

So hear my cry for mercy

Cos am out on a limb

Alone without support

From my eyes

Tears flows

Lord am out of the road

I lost in the dark

Come to my rescue

For my pains and my head

Keeps on pounding

And that's why am praying

Clout over me God

Clout over me God

I made you my dwelling

It only You I cherish

Through you the world is established

That's why am praying

God, clout over me

Oh please

God, clout over me

Oh please

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh

Oh oh yh yh
