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
