Lord protect me from turning urban
So easy to act so different, when you're living suburban
You could get lost in all the foolish things while constantly searching
To many of us forget about a recent sermon,
But remember what we found two weeks ago, while internet surfing
Drowning in our sorrows, and still wondering about our purpose

All it really takes is God's discernment...

Life is so unnerving,
Crawling under your skin; as the flesh is always burning
Always yearning;
And when you feed into it, our spirit is slowly hurting
As the sacrifice made for us, is something we're undeserving

Still it served a much larger purpose...

It's so easy to lose your faith, if you trade it's purpose,
For buying into feelings like a daily purchase
As this prayer would end off as it started,
As a prayer for protection from this world circus

                              Amen.
