Healing

I used to pray for things that I don't need
And troubled God with all my vanities
I used to pray for things that I shouldn't want
Men do say things, but I forgot

Now I pray for healing
I pray for peace
I'll pray for healing
For you and me

I used to pray all my bills got paid
And that we got safely to the gigs we played
I used to pray that we'd get MTV
So we could be where we thought we should be

Now I pray for healing
I pray for peace
I'll pray for healing
For you and me

I used to pray my kids would grow up happy
Now I pray that they grow up at all
But I refuse to let these fears de-rail me
Because I know it won't be long
Before we're standing tall again
Tall again

I used to pray when things were not so fine
Now I find myself praying all the time
All the things that I used to pray for
Suddenly don't mean a thing no more

'Cause I pray for healing
I pray for peace
I'll pray for healing for you
And for you
And for you, and you, and you
I'll pray for you
I'll pray for you
So pray for me
Pray for peace
Pray for peace
