My Life is A Prayer

Jean Philippe Gibson

How could they say I don't know you

When you live inside of me

Your divine love is flowing through my vein

You are the spark that lights my flame

You showed me the way

Told me the truth

And Gave me life

Let me eat your flesh and drink your blood

Through your passions you gave me compassion

You made me love others more than self

To me you're not a stranger

Look in my eyes and of you they can get a glimpse

Help them to see I have no worries

Because my life is a Prayer!
