but our sins pollute the water And now the river is flooded so we must build and ark of faith and trust in divine providence I was in a room of darkness it wasn't enough to open the window for air I had to unlock the door so I searched for the key and what I found was Our Lady of Medugorje saying to: Chorus: Pray, pray pray pray, pray pray pray, for a happier day, oh come on and pray, pray pray pray, pray pray pray, and the Lord will show you the way. Me and my brothers and sisters we were struggling between heaven and hell We found it hard to understand how we got sunk into a spiral of negative and demonic spells So we went on a pilgrimage searching for healing at the heavenly wells We came across a wise man telling us children it's very simple, conversion, mass the sacraments and Chorus Oh we've got to pray, pray pray pray, pray pray pray for a happier day Need a childlike faith to enter into heaven 'til the harvesters come don't be afraid We all have our crosses to carry if we carry them humbly there's no need to worry If we forgive we'll be forgiven then our purified hearts will feel the presence of God's eternal love burn inside I ain't no religious expert but I don't have to be to know that God ain't illusion I'm testifying what I witness 'cause a faith without acts is a dead faith that's why I wrote this song so we can Chorus Oh we've got to pray, pray pray pray, pray pray pray for a happier day Pray pray pray for a happier day Got to pray for a better day Pray pray pray for a happier day Got to pray for a better day Pray pray pray for a happier day Got to pray for a better day Pray pray pray for a happier day Got to pray for a better day Pray pray pray for a happier day The Memorare

O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen. We seek to do as best we can in everything that is expected of us in order to become holy. The most important thing is to draw near to God by living for him; everything else is secondary.
