I look up unto the sky
And I pray
I pray for peace
And I pray for this nation

I pray for America
I pray for you
And I am instantly better

God is with you
God is always there
He is the shoulder to cry on
He is there when you feel like nobody understands

He will watch you
And keep you safe

I pray for these things
In Jesus's name

AMEN
