I wanted to write a song that's about praying so that non-believers could hear it and at the same time, so that I could express my views on prayer.

My Prayers
Many of us think that praying to God is an act of foolishness
We think that we pray to an imaginary figure that does not exist
But what we don¡¯t know is that God is true and that He answers all of our prayers
Because He is truly the God who can do everything that we ask from His righteousness
Verse 1
Dear God, I just want to thank you Lord for giving me this graceful day
I am happy that I¡¯m with you and that you¡¯re with me and let this be the usual way
Watching how you work the things in this world let¡¯s me know of your glory
All the time that you¡¯ve been watching over me, I know it¡¯s cuz you loved me
Let your will be done through my toil, cuz that¡¯s why I still have breath
Let me eat from your daily bread the amount, no more and no less
Forgive me Father for the things I have done cuz I¡¯m weak, yet I need you
Help me forgive my enemies cuz you have created them too
Chorus
Lord these are my prayers, as much as my faith allows
I know you are there, and that you answer my prayers
Verse 2
Heavenly Father, you are true with your words
You have heard me out, answered me, and quenched my thirst
You have brought my dad to church recently
And you have answered my prayers finally
I know that you don¡¯t give what I want right away
(sing) But you know what is best for me, so it comes on a perfect day
And in a way, I¡¯ve doubted you before, but now I can say
You are the God that can do everything
And anything in this world is what you bring
Knowing your love makes me wanna sing
To praise you and I won¡¯t stand on the brink
Of falling down the cliff to the pits of sin
If I ever slip off you will lift me by my chin
Hoarding wealth is like a camel going through a pin
And with your holy spirit, I will always win
Chorus
Lord these are my prayers, as much as my faith allows
I know you are there, and that you answer my prayers
Verse 3
It¡¯s a shame cuz not that many of us believe in our prayers
Only if this generation knew that you are the God who truly cares
Not only do you listen to our thoughts but you give us an answer
You make miracles happen, like the healing of the beggars
Forgive this generation that does think that they are in control of their lives
And forgive this nation that thinks they have true freedom and human rights
Not to mention the struggles and the blood that come from our selfish fight
And this prayer is my deepest of plights
Heavenly Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever
Amen
