This I Pray

I can feel your eyes upon me you are not welcome I hurry to complete my tasks you reckless phantom divine power raises its brow I am never forgotten intervention is necessary by the one who's begotten Freedom of expression is and will be prevalent consideration and understanding is never absent speak to me O Lord so that I may succumb oppression heal me from the pain which creates this depression Lift me higher into your world so I find peace and harmony remove their strength by weakening their defensive armory this I pray as I sing in your glory never denouncing You this I pray for our country we decorated in red white and blue This I will shout from every mountain and every roof-top proclaim as I walk in your bounty feared with the power of your Holy Name
