Prayer
Words and Music: Carolyn-Fe Trinidad

Take me up to the sacred mountains
Help me up to wash my soul
Take me up to feel the rain
Help me ease my weary bones
Help me heal my sins and anger
Let me take the first step home
Help me wait a little longer
Let me pray for my lost soul
CHORUS
Lord I hear your call of candor
Lord I fear I'm all alone
Lord I want your peaceful prayer
Let me stand up on my own
Come and take my fear and rancor
Throw it down the muddy shores
Let there be no vicious slander
Nowhere near these hallowed doors
