Wish I Could Pray

When I was a child I thought as a child
We sang hymns at the close of the day
But now I'm a man, I think like a man
But sometimes I wish I could pray

Just to thank someone when the danger is past
When returned to your family and friends
Or for comfort when you are
Tired and you’re scared
Or got problems that seem will not end

Sometimes I wish I could pray
Sometimes I wish I could pray
Most of the time I'm doing OK
But there are sometimes I wish I could pray

Just to thank someone for the
Stars and the sun
For the cry of a baby at birth
To believe there's a home way
Up high in the sky
When our journey is done on this earth

Sometimes I wish I could pray
Sometimes I wish I could pray
Most of the time I’m doing OK
But there are sometimes I wish I could pray

To believe everything has been
Planned in advance
By one who keeps watch and is pleased
Or to lift up your eyes and to thank someone
When you're humbled and brought to your knees

Sometimes I wish I could pray
Sometimes I wish I could pray
Most of the time I'm doing OK
But there are sometimes I wish I could pray
