Prayin’ For You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I turned on the news today The south's underwater, the west is in flames Another mom-and-pop shop shut down A new drug tearin' up another town It's hard to see clear when the world's scared straight Hard to find love when they sell only hate Yeah, we fight, but we don't know what for It's even worse than the day before [Chorus] Tonight, I lay me down to sleep But I ain't gonna make this one about me Yeah, I've got my wants and I've got my complaints But it looks like You got a whole lot on Your plate 'Cause I'm lookin' out at a world on firе It's in Your hands, but they must be tired I know I don't see it thе way that You do And I know you don't need it, but God, I'm prayin' for You [Verse 2] Thought I knew what a heartbreak was From failed Hail Marys to hard breakups Yeah, You know those broke me in two So I can't imagine what You're goin' through With the love You've got, Lord, it's gotta be hard To see this mess and how lost we are [Chorus] So tonight, I lay me down to sleep But I ain't gonna make this one about me Yeah, I've got my wants and I've got my complaints But it looks like You got a whole lot on Your plate 'Cause I'm lookin' out at a world on fire It's in Your hands, but they must be tired I know I don't see it the way that You do And I know you don't need it, but God, I'm prayin' for You [Bridge] And I know that You're busy up there Got a plan and there ain't no doubt I guess all I can ask down here Is can You help me help You out? [Chorus] Tonight, I lay me down to sleep But I ain't gonna make this one about me Yeah, I've got my wants and I've got my complaints But it looks like You got a whole lot on Your plate 'Cause I'm lookin' out at a world on fire It's in Your hands, but they must be tired I know I don't see it the way that You do And I know you don't need it, but God, I'm prayin' for You [Outro] And I know you don't need it, but God, I'm prayin' for You God, I'm prayin' for You
