a little prayer
Take
these shoes and
make them fit
Take
this shirt, polyester
white trash made in nowhere
Take
this shirt and
make it clean, clean
Take
this soul, stranded
in some skin and bones
Take
this soul and
make it sing.
Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before a child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I'm waiting for the dawn
Take
these hands, teach
them what to carry
Take
these hands, don't
make a fist
Take
this mouth, so
quick to criticize
Take
this mouth, give
it a kiss
Still
waiting for the dawn, the sun is coming up
The
sun is coming up on the ocean
This
love is like a drop in the ocean
