Don't even try to tell me what prayer is for
My Genie in a bottle needs to give me some more
And when this mess is over-I don't need Him anymore
I'll put my God back on temporary ignoreIf you will do what I need you to do
I'll find some time to praise you when this whole thing is through
If you get me out of this, Oh great Almighty
I promise I'll never do it again-well maybe...I get along fine most of the time
No thought for thanks or blessings sublime
When turmoil breaks through the shell of my comfort
My lack of a prayer life abortWhite knucklin the rosary
I know my God by what He does for me
Open only in case of emergency
White knucklin the rosaryWhen turmoil breaks through the shell of my comfort
My lack of a prayer life abortAn acrostic for prayer that I learned as a kid
Praise and repentance, ask for others, yourself
But now in my lackluster state of affairs
Give me what I ask for-beyond that who cares?White knucklin the rosary
I know my God by what He does for me
Open only in case of emergency
White knucklin the rosaryPray without ceasing-give thanks for all things
A prayer life that's missing the joy that can bring
