“Laura’s Prayer”
Words and Music by Georgia Stitt
Sung by Nikki Renee Daniels
Piano: Georgia Stitt
from THE BIG BOOM, book by Hunter Foster
WE PRAY FOR PATIENCE.
WE PRAY FOR TIME.
WE PRAY FOR GOD TO WALK BESIDE US
AS THESE HILLS GET EVER HARDER TO CLIMB.
WE PRAY FOR WISDOM
AND PEACE THROUGHOUT THE LAND.
BUT WHEN WE FAIL GOD, AS WE WILL,
WE PRAY HE’LL UNDERSTAND.
WE ARE ONLY HUMAN, BUT WE TRY.
WE PRAY THAT GOD WILL SEE US– REALLY SEE US —
THROUGH EVERY TRUTH, THROUGH EVERY LIE.
WE PRAY FOR KNOWLEDGE
AND GUIDANCE FROM ABOVE
AS WE NAVIGATE THIS LIFE,
THE DAY TO DAY OF HOPE AND STRIFE,
MOST OF ALL, WE PRAY FOR LOVE.
WE ASK FORGIVENESS
AND GUIDANCE FROM ABOVE
AS WE NAVIGATE OUR WAY
THROUGH ALL THE PAIN WE FEEL EACH DAY,
MOST OF ALL, WE PRAY FOR LOVE.
