Prayer chords and lyrics - DMX

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
I come [D]to you hungry and [G]tired
You [D]give me food,
[G]let me sleep
[Bm]I come to you [G]weak
You give me strength, [Bb]and that's deep
[G]You call me a sheep,
and lead me to green pastures
Only askin' that I keep the focus in
between the chapters
You give me the word and only ask that I
interpret
And give me the eyes that I may recognize
the serpent
You know I ain't perfect,
but you'd like me to try
Unlike the devil who just wants
me to lie 'til I die
Lord, why is it that I go
through so much pain?
All I saw was black,
all I felt was rain
I come to you because
it's you who knows
You showed me that everything was black
because my eyes were closed
You gave me the light and let me bask
in your glory
So it was only right that
when you ask for this story
I put it together to do our
dogs some good
[Bb]Our dogs being [G]brothers and
sisters of the hood
Plenty of times you should help my way,
but I hid
And I remember once you held me close,
but I slid
It was [Em]somethin' that
[G]I just had to see
That you wanted me to see so
I could be what you wanted me to be
And I think I've seen it 'cause I don't feel
the same
Matter of fact I know I've seen
it, I can feel the change
It's strange,
but it's got me beatin' down [F]your door
[G]But I've never known love like this
before
It's a wonderful feelin' to get away
from the pain
And up under the ceiling
I get away from the rain
And the strain that I feel when I'm here
is gone
I know real, so I wipe away the tear,
it's on
And I [F]almost lost
faith when you took my man
[F]Monte, Paso, and Jay's
brother [G]Dan
And I fear that what I'm sayin' won't
be heard until I'm gone
But it's all good 'cause
I really didn't expect to [Am]live long
So if it takes for me to suffer
for my [G]brother to see the light
Give me pain 'til I die,
but, please, Lord, treat him right
