[G] Well, this is a yet another prayer song and sometimes I find it hard [C] to pray and
[G] why I've written so many prayer songs is because it's easier if you sing sometimes and
God [C] may find it more entertaining than if you just say it to who knows
Except that I was just not really all that sure that God is all that concerned about [Bm] being entertained
human thing
[G] Sometimes you know you try to pray you try to impress God with all the right [Bm] words
just [B] don't think it's an easy thing to impress God Almighty

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ Well, this is a yet another prayer song and _ _ sometimes I find it hard [C] to pray and
[A] maybe that's [G] why I've written so many prayer songs is because it's easier if you sing sometimes and
_ _ God [C] may find it more entertaining than if you just say it to who knows
[G] _ _ _ _ _
_ Except that I was just not really all that sure that God is all that concerned about [Bm] being entertained
I'm not sure except what [D] that's just a _ _
_ human thing
[C] _ _ _ _
[G] _ Sometimes you know you try to pray you try to impress God with all the right [Bm] words
And I _ [C] _ _ _
just [B] don't think it's an easy thing to impress God Almighty
_ If you know what [G] I mean is and here's the thing [C] that I think we often forget is that [D] we don't have to impress him
_ He's already knocked out about you
_ _ [Ab] He already loves you more [Em] than you can imagine
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ remember reading the thing [C] that Picasso once said I I
[G] Like to read what famous [C] artists have to say because I can barely _
[Fm] I'm barely [G] able to look at their paintings without _ _ _ _
[Cm] Going into a coma [B] trying to figure out what it's about _ _
But he said this one thing that I really did [G] like he said that good taste was the enemy of great art
Which I think is very [C] very true _
_ [A] good taste has all to do with being [Cm] cultured and being refined [G] and
If art has to do with anything it has be do with being human
And [D] one of the reasons I love the Bible is because the the humans in the Bible are not very refined
they're
[C] Pretty goofy if you want to know the whole truth about [G] it
_ _ _ [Bm] And I [G] remember when I was a kid and people would always say
You know cuz I was [C] one of those typical depressed
adolescent types I
wrote poetry and stuff is how morose I was as a [G] kid and
People go around saying oh cheer up man because God loves you, and I'd always say big deal
_ God loves everybody
That don't make me special
_ That just proves that God ain't got no taste
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _
And I don't think he does
_ [C] _ _ _
[A] [G] Thank God
_ _ _ _ Because [G] God takes the junk of our lives
_ _ And he makes the greatest art in the world out of it, _ _ _ _ and if he was cultured
[Bm] If he was as civilized as most Christian people [G] wish he was
[Cm] He would be useless [C] to Christianity
_ _ _ but God is a [G] wild man and _
_ _ _ I [D] hope that
The course of your life you encounter him, _ but [G] let me warn you you need to hang on for dear life
_ _ Or let go for dear life
maybe is better and _ _
_ _ This is a prayer for you, and you're welcome to sing it along with [G] us _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Sometimes [D] the night was [G] beautiful
_ Sometimes the sky [E] was so far [C] away
_ Sometimes I seem to stoop so [D] close
_ You get tired, but your heart would [Bm] break
_ [C] Sometimes the morning came too soon
_ Sometimes the [C] day could be so [Em] hot
There was [D] so much work left to [C] do
So much [Am] should I have done [G] Oh God
You are my God _
[Em] And I [D] will ever [G] praise you _
Oh God
You are [D] my God
And [C] I [D] will ever [G] praise you
And [Em] I will seek you
In [D] the morning _
[C] And I will learn
To walk in [Am] your way _
[G] And God
_ will [D] lead me
[C] And I will follow [D] you
all of [G] my day.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Sometimes I [D] think of _ [G] Abraham,
how one star [D] he saw had been lit just [C] for me.
He was a stranger in this [D] land,
and I am that _ less than [Bm] he. _
And on his [C] road to [Bm] righteousness, _
sometimes I [C] climb and be so [Em] steep
that _ [D] _ I'm in my [C] step, but [Am] never beyond your reach.
[G] Oh God, you [D] are my God,
_ [Em] _ _ [D] and I will [G] praise you.
Oh God, you [D] are my God,
_ [C] and [D] I will [G] praise you,
and [Em] I will seek you in [D] the morning.
I [C] will learn to walk in [Am] your ways,
[G] and step by step [D] you'll lead me.
