Woorden: Angel Isaacs. Degrees Of Glory. Prayer Shadows.

Faintly the echoes of the prayers I have prayed
Lap upon the shores of my memory
And as I walk there on the sand I pretend I walk with Him
But He?s standing by himself in the shadows

Prayer Shadows
When you pray old prayers to Him
Prayer Shadows
When in your prayers you just pretend
Prayer Shadows
That the God to whom you?re praying
Is hearing every word you?re saying
Though the sounds that you?re replaying
Are just the prayers of yesterday
Prayer Shadows

Hiding from the words that He wishes I would pray
Fearing the pain that they will cause me
Trusting in my pretension that everything?s o.k.
To keep the moment of confession and submission held at bay

Prayer Shadows
When you pray old prayers to Him
Prayer Shadows
When in your prayers you just pretend
Prayer Shadows
That the God to whom you?re praying
Is hearing every word you?re saying
Though the sounds that you?re replaying
Are just the prayers of yesterday
Prayer Shadows

Prayer Shadows, prayer shadows, prayer shadows
