Somebody once told me the Lord is not your roadie
You ain't the star, so do it yourself
I said, 'Look, it's kind of dumb if there's things I need done
It's a shame not to call on the Lord's help'

Well, my prayers start comin' and they don't stop comin'
I read through the rules and I think I found somethin'
Didn't make sense not to get more done
I pray real hard 'cause the Heavenly Son
Showed us what to do,said knock and seek

So what's wrong with praying and asking
You better go in Luke, bro, 11:9, if you don't know

Pray now, it's a lost art, get your day underway
Pray now, get a jump start, get a move on, get faith
God is listenin', you know, only you can start prayin' though

There's a cool case so you're prayin' gets bolder
You look it up, Luke 18 yeah, let's go there
When the meanest of men met the widow
Judge he was, you know if you have the right scripture

But I see that his patience is gettin' pretty thin
The woman gets annoyin', so he might as well give in
The worlds like that, how about the Lord
God already likes ya and you'll never get ignored

Pray now, it's a lost art, get your day underway
Pray now, fourth chapter, let me show ya, in James
God is listenin' you know, only you can start prayin' though

Somebody once asked Jesus
Give us the capacity to get ourselves a faith that is great
Christ said, 'Well, why ya want help?
You could move a little hill yourself, if you would all use a little faith'

Well, my prayers start comin' and they don't stop comin'
I read through the rules and I think I found somethin'
Didn't make sense not to get more done
Pray it smart 'cause the heavenly Son
Showed us what to do, said, 'Knock and seek'

So what's wrong with praying and asking
You'll never know if you don't go
You better try if you don't know

Pray now, it's a lost art, get your day underway
Pray now, get a jump start, get a move on, get faith
God is listenin', you know, only you can start prayin' though
