V1
If you can judge a man by his hair, or the clothes you see him wear,
You might be blind,
If he needs your prayer, or a helping hand, would you do all you can,
Or leave him behind?
PRE-CHORUS
If you want to get, to that higher place,
Ya gotta try harder.
CHORUS
Ya learn at church, the golden rule,
But this old world is your school,
Ain't enough, saying grace,
Right now right here is the time and place,
You better do,
You better do,
You better do more than just pray.
V2
You say that you're a family guy, but you're not home every night,
Are you working late?
You know your wife don't understand, you take that ring off your hand,
Can't you just be straight?
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS & CHORUS
BRIDGE
Stop asking to be saved by someone up in the sky,
Just look in the mirror, that's your guy.
GUITAR SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS
More than just pray. (3X)
