Lyrics

It Starts With A Prayer

Music/Lyrics by John Kelly Wilson

Verse
Why does one person live to be 90
And another leave us at 24
Some reach the promised land so beautifully and peaceful
And others leave this life with such a roar

We don't know the answers to these questions
Guess that's why it's called having faith
Believing that you can talk to someone higher up, who has your hand, and will guide you through the pain

Knowing all will be alright, it was meant to be, and we'll be shown a brand new way

Chorus
It all starts with a prayer
It all starts with a prayer

Verse
Wish I knew why God always takes the good ones
Seems sometimes their time on earth's so short
Whether here for a short time or longer when they go, the ones they leave behind have broken hearts

But I know there's a masterplan, way more than we know

Chorus
Finding out, it all starts with a prayer
Finding out, it all starts with a prayer

Bridge
It's so hard watching someone you love, getting old, and movin on
But it's just as hard watching someone go out early from this world
It all leaves a toll

Verse
If the pain sometimes seems like it's too much to handle
And you don't know who to turn to, or who will understand
Just stop for a moment, remember the good times, look up, and ask for a helping hand

The place to turn for help, is through a prayer

Chorus
Cause it all starts with a prayer
Oh yeah it all starts with a prayer
It all starts with a prayer
It all starts with a prayer
Starts with a prayer
