Teach Me to Pray (feat. Marie-Eve)

Help me be quiet when a riot sets loose Help me be calm when a storm breaks through Help me be still when I feel it's no use And teach me to pray Teach me to pray Teach me to pray Through all the hustle and the bustle of this hectic life Help me make the time to reflect on you Be still and know that you are God You are God I know that nothing is more critical than prayer, no Yet very few things are neglected more Don't let me lay down my defenses when it's dire Lord Because I know the Christian life is war You exhort me to pray and never quit But every time I find a pattern soon I fall out of it All the distractions and abstractions don't permit But it is unto your will I must submit Help me be quiet when a riot sets loose Help me be calm when a storm breaks through Help me be still when I feel it's no use And teach me to pray Teach me to pray Teach me to pray Jesus, distend me I'm begging you to stretch me and extend me To bend me Conform me to your will and then defend me Up-end me so there is less of me in the way And teach me to pray All the perils of life, dem ah nuh nothing When we can pray to a God so immense So cover me with your wing A new song I'm going to sing And set for me a brand new precedence You are delighted to hear the voice of this guilty rebel I'm excited to be connected to you on this level You've ignited the spark inside me, it's been lighted And it causes me to say Help me be quiet when a riot sets loose Help me be calm when a storm breaks through Help me be still when I feel it's no use And teach me to pray Teach me to pray Teach me to pray Alright then, so watch me Whether calm, whether storm Whether dark, whether light Every bark, every bite Every bump in the night - fright Me deh alright, me deh sit tight, oh yeah alright Whether night, whether day Whether bright, whether gray Me nah flight me nah stray Me ah fight and pray Mek me light shine bright every day Whether up, whether down Whether smile, whether frown Every stick, every stone Every groan with the broke bone Me nah shut down, never slow down Me nah step down Whether night, whether day Whether bright, whether gray Me nah flight me nah stray Me ah fight and pray Mek me light shine bright and so me say Help me be quiet when a riot sets loose Help me be calm when a storm breaks through Help me be still when I feel it's no use And teach me to pray Teach me to pray Teach me to pray Help me be quiet when a riot sets loose Help me be calm when a storm breaks through Help me be still when I feel it's no use And teach me to pray Teach me to pray Teach me to pray
