Analysis of PRAYER OF A SINNER
* I close my Eyes' Try to call a LIGHT in the Dark'
* I Humble my HEART' With my Mind I search for LOVE'
* I wide-open my Mouth' In my KNEES, I Bow down on the Ground'
- I lay in the Night' Hope to Rise' when the SUN Rise in the SKY'
- I sharpen my Ears' I hear Bird's Cry, from a DISTANCE'
- I concentrate my Mind' I hear the CRY's of Little CHILDRENS'
> I Hide in the Dark' Try to Hide my Nakedness'
> I left my LIFE back in the Past' The TIME Passes BY'
+ I CRIED ALOUD TO YOU FATHER' "LET YOUR KINGDOM + COME' & THAT YOUR WILL BE DONE TONIGHT'
+ IN THE NAME OF YOUR SON' OUR LORD JESUS'
