The Prayer

The Prayer

Lyrics by LVitto 

Song on the album, "The Universe Gave Me a Melody"

Producer/Composer: David Scott 

 

[Opening Hook: LVitto] 

I thank God for every day of life, 

I never been afraid to die, 

But, this surgery might change my life, 

For better or worse my faith remains in Christ, yeah! 

For better or worse my faith remains in Christ, yeah! 

(Repeat 1x) 

[Verse: LVitto] 

I know I’m not perfect Lord, 

But you are a perfect Lord, 

Never unemployed you stay working Lord, 

Sometimes my actions question who I’m working for, 

But, you are the Alpha Omega, protector and savior, forever in favor, 

Of those who put you over Satan with no hesitation I pray that you answer this prayer, 

My name’s Dave and I’m facing Goliath, 

A patient at Duke and I hope that I triumph, 

Inside I am crying but still I am fighting, 

I open my heart you open my eyelids, 

My family’s counting on me and I’m counting on you, 

To turn this congenital into a miracle, 

This moment’s critical, rebuke the funeral, 

I just want to get it over with, 

Sick of going under the knife like a horror flick, 

Why can’t I live healthy, teach my daughter violin? 

There’s so much evil in the world, WHY NOT THEM? 

Please forgive me, I just been stressing, 

Lately, I’ve questioned all your perfections, 

I know I can’t see it but there is a blessing, 

Wait, Vitto just sent me a message, 

He told me that he’s praying for me, then he called and he prayed with me, 

It evoked so much bravery, those potent words stayed with me, 

With a spiritual tongue he said bless the heels on my feet to the crown on my head, 

Bless the hands that’s putting the valve in my leg, 

The more he said my spirit got fed, 

And it made me courageous, no more fear in my veins I was ready, 

Thank you God for this brother of mines, his faith is my faith we are family, 

And you took the weight off my chest and put a new heart in my chest, 

You took the wait off my chest and put a new heart in my chest, 

[Closing Hook: LVitto] 

I thank God for every day of life, 

I never been afraid to die, 

But, this surgery might change my life, 

For better or worse my faith remains in Christ, yeah! 

For better or worse my faith remains in Christ, yeah! 

(Repeat 1x)
