Prayers Are Like a Message

Prayers are like a message
You send them to someone who can take care of it for you
But if you don’t write the message no one can help you
I have learned prayers since I was born
Every night I say a pray

These 4 corners on my bed 
These 4 angels over head
Mathew mark Luke and john 
This is the bed that I lay on
And If I die before I wake 
I pray the lord my soul to take

And then I add stuff to it after that 
And then at the dinner table when I was little I would say this prayer

God is good
God is great 
Let us thank him for our food
Bow our heads 
We must be fed
Give us lord 
Our daily bread
Amen 
God bless

The when I used to go to this church camp which last year was my last year
We would make up these prayer songs before a meal.
One of them was 

God is good
God is great
God he gave us chocolate cake 
He is a righteous dude
He gave us food
Ruba dub dub 
Three men in a tub
(Father, son, and Holy Spirit)
Thank you god for this great grub 
Amen amen amen amen

So prayers are a big part of my life and have been for a very long time and always will be
