Madeleine Peyroux

a prayer

Lord
I must be strong now
I don?t belong now
In this world anymore

I?ll say a final prayer for
Those I care for
Who?ve kept my company

My need is clear
I?m dying to have you near
To me

Lord
I don?t belong now
If you are waiting
I am not afraid to die

I?m prepared to go
Divide my body and soul
Won?t you

Lord
I don?t belong now
If you are waiting
I am not afraid to die

Have mercy
Lord, I?m told it?s paradise
To have and to hold you

Lord
I must be strong now
I don?t belong now
In this world anymore

Lord
I won?t be long now
If you are waiting
I am not afraid to die
