Prayers Up Lyrics

Counting bottles in the trash

She thinks it's too much to ask

For mercy on a Thursday afternoon

She hasn't made her bed in weeks

She's lying the afraid to speak

And she can't bring herself to leave this room

The only way to heal the hurt inside

Is to bow your head and surrender to the sky

Sending Prayers Up can you rain your blessings down

Prayers Up can you spread your love around

Are we too broken to believe it

Can't you tell how bad we need it

Sending Prayers Up Prayers Up

Daddy's waiting on a downtown train

Pick his little girl up in the rain

And get her home for supper just in time

She said mama left us late last June

I still miss her how about you

And he said baby even grown men need to cry

The only way to heal the hurt inside

Is to bow your head and surrender to the sky

Sending Prayers Up can you rain your blessings down

Prayers Up can you spread your love around

Are we too broken to believe it

Can't you tell how bad we need it

Sending Prayers Up Prayers Up

Hear the voices of the lonely

Think that no one cares

Cryin' out for something holy

When it feels like no one's there

You are everywhere

Sending Prayers Up Prayers Up Prayers Up Prayers Up

Sending Prayers Up can you rain your blessings down

Prayers Up can you spread your love around

Are we too broken to believe it

Can't you tell how bad we need it

Sending Prayers Up Prayers Up

Sending Prayers Up Prayers Up
