On That Note: Faith

[Cupped]

John Melencamp, Rain on the Scarecrow

Hey, calling it your job ol' hoss, sure don't make it right
But if you want me to I'll say a prayer for your soul tonight
And Grandma's on the front porch swing with a Bible in her hand
Sometimes I hear her singing "Take me to the Promised Land"
When you take away a man's dignity, he can't work his fields and cows

 

[cyclones500]

“You gave me faith to go on.”

The more you know, the less you feel
Some pray for, others steal





I'm gonna make you bend and break (it sent you to me without wings)
Say a prayer, but let the good times roll





And pray to God he hears you
And I pray to God he hears you




Well, I just heard the news today
It seems my life is going to change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray
Then tears of joy stream down my face

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Who's that girl?
Who's that girl?
When you see her, say a prayer and kiss your heart goodbye



We'll make a wish and send it on a prayer
We know our dreams can all come true with love that we can share




And you think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way



But time threw a prayer to me
And all around me became still

Catching up on all the suggestions. This is so great. Collective Soul

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

Dreaming of what could be and if I'd end up happy
I would pray (I would pray)




At night I pray
That soon your face will fade away




You laugh, you learn
You choose, you learn
You pray, you learn

Too many churches and not enough truth

We need honesty and transparency. Fear holds professionals back from speaking truth.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To the one, to the one





Sometimes I'd listen outside her door
And I'd hear how my mother cried for him
I pray for her even more than me
I pray for her even more than me






And some days I pray for silence
And some days I pray for soul
Some days I just pray to the God
Of Sex and Drums and Rock 'N' Roll

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

So I cry and I pray and I beg
Love me love me
Say that you love me
Fool me fool me

Disappointed there were not any comments of feedback. As an ordained mainliner, I would love to know what causes people to lose their religion.

The videos of them playing live are simply amazing. They are so talented. Been a long-time fan.
