This is prayer (my prayer)
Oh, Lord (oh, Lord)
Oh, Lord
This is prayer (my prayer)
Oh, Lord (oh, Lord)
Oh, Lord
Let me utilize the sunshine and glance
Never let me bring her
One moment of sadness
Oh, whoa
Oh, Lord (oh, Lord)
Yeah, yeah, this is my prayer (my prayer)
When trouble comes
Never let her doubt me
Let her feel my love
All around, I'll be by her
Said, oh, whoa
Oh, Lord (oh, Lord)
Yeah, this is my prayer (my prayer)
And when I'm old and gray
These are the words that I'd like to hear her say
Yes, I would (yes, I would)
Yes, I would (yes, I would) love (oh, yeah)
Darling, darling, darling
Darling my life has been completed, and you, you, you
Are the only one that I have ever really needed
Oh, my beloved one
Oh, just keep, believe me, Lord, in my life
Make her lead me (my friend)
Make her want me (my love)
Keep her loving me
Oh, Lord
Can't you understand that I'm just another
Lonely man and I need someone to care?
Trying every way I can to make them understand
That I just wanna be, gotta be there, forever loving man
Gotta have a love of my own
But you know that's the way...
