Gerry Rzeppa - Prayer Lyrics



Gerry Rzeppa - Prayer Lyrics
Official




When I was a boy I used to talk to my dad
Told him where I'd been and showed him what I had
Told him what I did even when it was bad
And took his advice even if it made me mad
Abraham prayed like he was making a deal
Isaac prayed for his wife
Jacob wrestled in prayer a whole night
And Jabez prayed for a prosperous life
Joshua prayed for the moon to stand still
Moses prayed on the run
Gideon prayed for wet and dry fleece
And Hannah prayed for a son
When I was a boy I used to talk to my pop
So much to say couldn't get me to stop
Sometimes had news that I wanted to drop
Sometimes had the blues and I needed a prop
David prayed with his face on the floor
Solomon hands in the air
Elijah prayed for clouds and a storm
Daniel prayed a law-defying prayer
Nehemiah prayed when he was building a wall
Jonah prayed in a fish
A centurion prayed for his slave to be healed
And blind Bartimaeus got what he wished
Well now I'm all grown with a boy of my own
He doesn't like to talk about the seeds he's sown
Bows his head and keeps his eyes on the rug
Then raises his hands and begs for a hug
A Canaanite prayed for her daughter's relief
A leper prayed to be clean
Jesus prayed to be let off the hook
And a thief prayed remember me
The Church prayed for Peter's release
Stephen prayed under constraints
Paul prayed about a thorn in the flesh
And nobody prayed to Mary or the saints
Seems to me prayer is just talking to Dad
Tell him about the adventures you've had
Thank him for it all the good and the bad
And take his advice even if it makes you mad
