Song

Teach me how to pray, Lord.
Teach me how to pray.
In my darkest day, Lord,
When my mind would stray,
Teach me how to pray.

There  are days when my thoughts run fast
With future fears and an unpassed past,
When I would moan or I would boast,
In days when I need silence most,
Teach me how to pray.
Chorus.

There are days when words won't come, 
When sadness leaves me deaf   and numb..
When I forget your welcome way,
Remind me what I need to say;
Teach me how to pray.
Chorus.
