Marcus Lenarde A Lonely Prayer lyrics

Verse 1:
A young boy stands on the corner,
Just out of school and there no rush to get home
Momma's working and the fridge is empty,
No siblings and the his daddy is gone
Thinks to himself why me oh Lord,
why do things have to be this way
Momma's stressed out and she's working two jobs,
I wanna help but I'm just to young
pre hook:
So i'll dream and i'll pray, pray til heaven hears me
Keep on dreaming, keep on believing , The Lord is listening, listening, listening
Keep on dreaming, keep on believing, The Lord is listening , listening, listening
Hook:
He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers,
He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers
Verse 2:
Innocent girl gives her prize away,
cause he told her things her daddy didn't say
like i love you and your beautiful,
he earned her trust now its physical
He got what he wanted now he's out the door,

now she'd thinking to herself why me oh Lord
why do things have to be this way,
gave him all of me now i'm feeling so dumb
hurt me so deep that my heart is numb,
pre hook:
So i'll dream and i'll pray, pray til heaven hears me
Keep on dreaming keep on believing , the Lord is listening, listening, listening
Keep on dreaming keep on believing, the Lord is listening, listening, listening
Hook:
He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers
Bridge:
He said he'll never leave you, He said he won't forsake you and He will give you what you ask in his name, He said he'll never leave you, He said he won't forsake you and He will give you what you ask in his name
( keep on dreaming keep on praying,keep on dreaming keep on praying,
keep on dreaming keep on praying,keep on dreaming keep on praying,
keep on dreaming keep on praying
Hook:
He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers,
He hears your prayers, He hears your prayers
