Lay my soul out bear by the river
Let my bridges burn and deliver me
Bring my soul back from the rhythm
Of the chains that got me here
It ain't fair, it isn't
Mercy, mercy, mercy
I've no luck with the man upstairs
Help me, help me, help me
Chorus:
Won't you pray?
She don't hear me like she hears you pray
So just pray for me
Won't you pray?
'Cause I'm too far from heaven when I pray
So just pray for me
Won't you, won't you pray for me? (4x)
(4x)
Mercy, mercy, mercy
Help me, help me, help me
Help me, help me (8x)
[Chorus]
Won't you, won't you pray for me? (4x)
