If I Could Pray - Haroula Rose
If I could pray just a little bit longer
My spirit would sleep with ease
If I could sing just a little bit louder
I'd make all the fear disappear
If I could let my laughter linger
It might reach the ends of the Earth
If I could have just a bit more faith
I'd know where my soul will go someday
Maybe I can learn to praise on high
If I could only find some time
Perhaps I'd end up where the good ones belong
If God could only hear this song
Well could I believe in a hero
Would he have the strength to fly
With buildings to cross
And smog in his lungs
Would he ever even reach the sky
If I wasn't so plagued with doubt
If I could see what Heaven's all about
Your way is what I would choose
I just need a little bit more proof
Maybe I can say hallelujah
Maybe someday I will see a sign
But there's not a moment to read or to write
In this city full of dreams and lights
Yes I will confess
I've thought too often of myself
But why was I made this way
Left in doubt
Waiting for your grace
Lord how can I pray to you
When there's so much to do
Maybe you can relate
Cuz you must be busy every day
Please Lord you can't blame me
Cuz I'm doing the best that I can
I know I'm no good
But I wrote this song
If you'd hear it
You'd understand
If only you'd were hear me
If only you'd understand
