Lecrae - Praying for you
© copyright Lecrae
Father God, I'm prayin' to you for somebody, who knows you
Lord but just hasn't, hasn't been seein' you in the right
view lately, Hear me out...
Father, I'm prayin' for a friend he and I are pretty close,
and out of all my friends for this one I'm concerned the
most. He say he readin' daily but he ain't really learnin'.
He been in church but say that he ain't moved by any sermon.
His face weak, he ain't prayed in a week, he wake up and
just weep with his face in the sink Lord, you gotta help my
man, I'm prayin' for him daily, he ain't sinned but it just
seem as if he goin' crazy. He say he feelin' trapped, can't
even hit up the mall coz every lady's half-dressed temptin'
him to lust and fall. He keep the TV off, videos just make
him feel that he ain't really nothin' without money, girls
and shiny wheels. The other day he told me that he felt less
a man coz he ain't have a five-year plan or a piece of land
and man it's crazy coz his family think so much of him, plus
he got a godly wife who always show her love for him but
he's strugglin', even though he talk to me, I tell him what
to do but he don't listen when he oughta' be. I'm scared for
him coz there's people that look up to him, he got some
younger siblings who been changed by what he's done for them
but is it done for him, Lord don't let it be, if he don't
wanna talk to you then Father hear from me, is it done for
him, Lord don't let it be, if he don't wanna talk to you
then Father hear from me...
Yeah, I'm prayin' for you, yeah, I'm prayin' for you
Yeah, I'm prayin' for you, yeah, yeah, I'm prayin' for
you...
God, his condition is worsen since we were last conversing,
I'm with him now and he ain't doin' well, of this I'm
certain. He say he tryna' trust you, doesn't wanna disgust
you but he was in the mist of sinners and did not discuss
you and just today his anxiety's got the best of him, he
knows Christ but for hours refused to rest in Him, he's not
the best of men but Lord I know he really loves you and I
can't understand why lately he's not thinkin' of you. People
trust this dude, you could crush this dude, Father he needs
more of you I pray you touch this dude, what can I say to
him? I'm determined to pray for him Father empty and break
him I pray you'll just have your way with him, coz there's a
change in him and the effects are strong, I pray you open up
his heart before the next song and when he gets home, I pray
he'll open up the sixty-six book love letter you wrote and
soak it up coz he ain't hearin' You and he ain't feelin' me
and God I know it's killin' You because it's killin' me and
matter of fact there's somethin' else he's concealin' see,
the person that I've been prayin' about is really me...
Yeah, I'm prayin' for you, yeah, I'm prayin' for you
Yeah, I'm prayin' for you, yeah, yeah, I'm prayin' for
you...
