Lyrics

(Leaps) Dear friends: tonight I feel that I must ask you to pray. I just got out of the hospital tonight and I received some bad news. The scan showed that I had numerous liver and peritoneal metastases. My doctor said this meant I most likely had about two months to live. I am now asking you to pray as you have never prayed before. Please don't pray that I will have a peaceful death. Please don't feel pity for me. Just pray hard. Pray that I will be healed in a miraculous, supernatural way. Just pray hard. Pray that God will give me wisdom as to what to do next. Please pray hard. Fight with me. Just pray. Don't give up on me.
