Dear Lord

Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers When I awake I thank the Lord for another day Blessed to be alive as I just strive to keep my head on straight Cause I've been walking a thin line no strength to defend mine I'm stuck in the bread line hoping I can rise above it But 9 to 5 don't really cut it I'm a glutton for this punishment Wondering who run it that's the way it goes Need the scripture just to heal my soul Give my heart to the faith and then I let it roll Praying hands to the sky wanna fly Been broken down and did sin went and made myself rise Got myself right try to be a better me Making up for the past I was selfish as can be Did evil deeds and lost my way I went astray It's hard to be an angel when the world kicks you out of place Trying to get a taste of heaven while I'm still on earth God help me while I try to figure out my worth Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Ironing out my thoughts while I speak to the Creator Feel the energy peeling back the layers hear my prayers I'm on my last word preaching like a pastor Cause time is moving faster but life is moving backwards Clasp my hands around this rosary so close to me Openly give my troubles vocally and hopefully you understand me totally But if you don't this is my last stand I'm at the end of my rope A pocket full of hymns got a mind full of psalms I pour it out my soul like a pitcher full of songs Been in the clouds dreaming while my body out here seeking Everybody else is sleeping while I'm looking for the meaning So I keep on asking in our conversations what it is May never know the answer but I do it for my kids So I'm truly happy for the time you've given me Appreciate you listening sincerely your seed Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers Lay my troubles at the front door Dear Lord can you hear my prayers
