Praying Right Lyrics

My friend called on Sunday and asked me if I wanted to go

Part of me wanted to and part of me didn't know

Can I wear my boots and jeans?

Will everybody stare at me?

Like they know how long it's been

I've got questions

Cause I've been treating my soul like an old run-down shack

All those demons living rent free on my back

So when I walk in with all my sins

I know I won't blend in, can you forgive me?

I've got questions

Like can I sing Amazing Grace with last night's whiskey on my breath

Do I deserve your love with the little bit of faith I've got left

Am I saying the right things

Am I getting through

Is it too late to turn to you

I'm trying, Lord I'm trying to find the light

Tell me am I praying right?

I can't quote the verse, but I've heard there's one that says

That all have fallen short so maybe I still have a chance

And it's heavy on me the shame I feel

For not giving thanks for my blessings

Am I worthy of an answer

I've got questions

Like can I sing Amazing Grace with last night's whiskey on my breath

Do I deserve your love with the little bit of faith I've got left

Am I saying the right things

Am I getting through

Is it too late to turn to you

I'm trying, Lord I'm trying to find the light

Tell me am I praying right

Do I have to hit my knees and raise my hands in church on Sunday

Will you still hear what's in my heart when I'm praying in my own way

Can I sing Amazing Grace with last night's whiskey on my breath

Do I deserve your love with the little bit of faith I've got left

Am I saying the right things

Am I getting through

Is it too late now to turn to you

Lord I'm trying, Oh I'm trying to find the light

Tell me am I praying right

Oh, am I praying right

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound…
