I Pray (Keeps Me Sane)

(Intro)
[Sound of car keys jingling and an engine starting. Acoustic guitar strumming.]
(Spoken, cheerful:)
I finally understand...
It's not complicated.
I just talk to Him.
​(Verse 1)
[Beat kicks in - Foot-tapping rhythm.]
I understand now that this is the way it should be.
I've come to a certain point, not able to turn back.
Cut ties to the bondage that I had!
And all I could cry was FREEDOM!
(Freedom!)
Thanks to Him on high.
There is a certain wisdom that comes with time.
Keeping away from the temptations... is harder than I can handle.
(I can't do it alone!)
But I stand my ground and I go to Him.
​(Chorus)
[Big, Sing-Along Anthem!]
So on bended knee, I pray!
And when I'm CLEANING, I pray!
(Yeah, I pray!)
And when I DRIVE, I pray!
And when I'm SCARED, I pray!
(I call His name!)
I understand now why people worship.
Because my relationship with Him just KEEPS ME SANE!
(Keeps me sane!)
I will worship Him and give Him praise!
Every single day... I pray!
​(Verse 2)
[Drums pick up energy.]
I understand the signs that have been brought to me.
I'm not looking back at who I used to be.
(No, no!)
The world is crazy, the world is loud.
But I found a peace inside the cloud.
I stand my ground and put my faith in Him!
I let it be known that He is with me!
(He is with me!)
​(Bridge)
[Music strips back to hand claps.]
(Chant:)
In the morning... (I PRAY!)
In the evening... (I PRAY!)
In the kitchen... (I PRAY!)
In the traffic... (I PRAY!)
My relationship with Him keeps me sane!
1, 2, 3, Let's GO!
​(Guitar/Banjo Solo)
[Fun, high-energy solo!]
​(Final Chorus)
[Maximum Volume! Joyful Noise!]
So on bended knee, I pray!
And when I'm CLEANING, I pray!
And when I DRIVE, I pray!
And when I'm SCARED, I pray!
I understand now why people worship.
Because my relationship with Him just KEEPS ME SANE!
I will worship Him and give Him praise!
Every single day... I pray!
​(Outro)
[Music fades with a happy acoustic strum.]
It keeps me sane.
(Spoken:) Thank you, Lord.
(Song ends.)
