Michael Patrick Kelly - Pray, pray, pray

World is like a river
of which we drink but our sins pollute the water
and now the river is flooded
so we must build an ark of faith
and trust in divine providence

I was in a room of darkness
it wasn't enough to open the window for air
I had to unlock the door
so I searched for the key
and what I found was our Lady of Medjugorje
saying to Pray

Pray, pray, pray
Pray, pray, pray
for a happier day
Oh, come on and pray
Pray pray pray
Pray pray pray
and the lord will show you the way

Me and my brothers and sisters
we were struggling between heaven and hell
we found it hard to understand
how we got sunk into a spiral
of negative and demonic spells
so we went on a pilgrimage
searching for healing at the heavenly wells
we came across a wise man
telling us children it's very simple
conversion, mass, the sacraments and

Pray, pray, pray
Pray, pray, pray
for a happier day
Oh, come on and pray
Pray pray pray
Pray pray pray
and the lord will show you the way
Oh, we've got to pray
Pray pray pray
Pray pray pray
For a happier day

Need a childlike faith to enter into heaven
'til the harvesters come don't be afraid

We all have our crosses to carry
if we carry them humbly
there's no need to worry
if we forgive we'll be forgiven
then our purified hearts will feel the presence
of God's eternal love burn inside


I ain't no religious expert
but I don't have to be
to know that God ain't illusion
I'm testifying what I witness
'cause a faith without acts is a dead faith
that's why I wrote this song
So we can pray

Pray pray pray
Pray pray pray
and the lord will show you the way
Oh, we've got to pray
Pray pray pray
Pray pray pray
For a happier day

Pray pray pray
For a happier day
