A Prayer

I know that you doubt me
You can’t hide what settles in your eyes
The worry in your heartbeat
I hear it when I hold you in the night

But I know that faith will just guide us
Through harder hurricanes
Swim through the tidal waves
‘Cause quietly I pray

Father, can you see me?
You know I won’t let go
Please give her everything she needs
I’ll give you every part of me
Father, can you see me?
You know I won’t let go
Please give her everything she needs

So we can live like those rich kids
The ones with the biggest house
We can live like those rich kids
Never will we do without

When you lay there shaking
You’re making sure I know what you’re not saying
I’m here, close to breaking
It’s hard for me, as it is for you
But you only get through hell by moving

But I know that faith will just guide us
Through harder hurricanes
Swim through the tidal waves
‘Cause quietly I pray
