My prayers today
Fell on deaf ears
Is God to tired
Or will not hear

So many prayers
That I have sent
With no response
With no repent

I ask Him why
My life’s this way
He sends his words
I don’t obey

Yet still I pray
And ask for more
But never try
The narrow door

He weeps for me
I feel the shame
Another day
Of constant pain

I curse at him
You owe me more
The tears rain down
I hit the floor

This man of clay
That I’ve become
Cannot be changed
By none not one

But still I pray
And ask of Him
He sits and waits
I don’t come in

The tears rain down
I brush them off
The clay gets hard
My life gets rough

I can’t go on
With life this way
I wonder why
I even pray


Still on I trudge
Day by day
It’s all my will
The only way


Until one day
I can’t go on
I hear the words
I look above


I scream to Him
I scream out loud
On bended knee
God help me now

I’m yours forever
This I say
My will to you
Release this pain

The tears rain down
And melt the clay
Within Gods hands
I rest and pray


He shapes my life
He guides my time
He teaches love
His will not mine

Today I weep
But not alone
No longer clay
But flesh and bone

My God with me
We weep as one
To save another
Fallen son
