A Minute To Rest And A Second To Pray |
Though my heart is heavy with grief |
My faith is strong, bring me relief |
Sometimes my dreams are closer |
Sometimes my feelings are so far away |
You’ve got a minute to rest and a second to pray |
Now I’ve got to fall down on my knees |
You can face the west, you can face the east |
My tired eyes can see the coming of a better day |
You’ve got a minute to rest and a second to pray |
A minute to rest and a second to pray |
It’s the last thing you hear |
The first thing you fear |
The sign of the wasted years |
And the pain with those tears |
Battles across the ocean, battles outside my door |
When night falls upon me, falls upon my mind |
Before I’d lay, before I’d lay, before I’d lay |
I take a minute to rest and a second to pray |
You get a minute to rest, just a second to pray |
You get a minute to rest and a second to pray |
You get a minute to rest and a second to pray |
You get a minute to rest and a second to pray |
Pray with the women you love |
Pray that the heaven’s above |
You got a second, you got a minute to rest |
Get it in your mind, take up the time |
You got a second to pray |
Don’t think about yesterday |
Take a minute to rest, take a second to pray |
You only got a minute to rest, to rest, to rest, to rest |
