Pray and Then Take Out the Trash
there's some praying going on right now
and it's time for you to get on down
down on your knees and to God just pray
that He'll remove all the trash standing in your way
how many time in life have you taken out the trash
to get rid of all those things that are cluttering your path
be it the junk, the spam, the baggages or the issues
it's time to throw out all the old and make room for the new
sooner of later you'll have to alleviate yourself of all that stuff
the debris in your life of which you have had enough
you need to pray about all those things in your life
the burdens,bothers and bondage causing you struggle and strife
one reason that you should pray is because you truly aspire
to be free of all the troubles and problems that you no longer desire
but be careful of those things you carry along in life's race
the things that will weigh you down and slow up your pace
for as far as the East is from the West
God only wants you to have the very best
take out the trash in life, those things that are in your way
and pray God will relieve you of the rubbish this day
just bring it all to Jesus whenever you need a spiritual check-up
bring it before the Savior and be transformed from the neck up
just don't think for one minute that you're the one who's in control
for whenever you pray to God, He's in the process of cleansing your soul
and don't become a garbage picker and attempt to hold on to all that trash
let go of all the dirt and sin and become purified at last
there's a spiritual war going on and the devil's on the stroll
so be girded up in the armor of God to protect the Kingdom's stronghold
just take out the trash and leave it on the cross
get rid of the accumulation, it won't be a great loss
get clean from the inside out and gain a pure heart
learn to forgive, forget and let go that's the best way to start
for there is nothing in this world that the Lord God can't work out
He has the answer to every question that you could possibly sprout
so take out all the trash after you have prayed
and with a clean house God will guide your way
