LYRIC
I AM A PRAYER- Chananya Rotenberg ft. Shulem Lemmer- Composed & Written by Chananya Rotenberg- War on Gravity
VERSE 1:
I came to life on a Friday night
Glowing in the candlelight,
Brought into this world with a broken heart.
My author was fervently swaying
Focused, absorbed – she was praying,
Shaken, knowing her life – was so torn apart.
PRE-CHORUS 1:
I flew up through the skies
and soared to the Gates of Heaven so high,
With hope in my eyes and faith in my heart
I reached for the doors.
CHORUS 1:
I am a prayer
I am an honest heartfelt plea,
I humbly beg and ask
With mercy please answer me
Let me come through, let my dreams come true.
VERSE 2:
But quickly my hopes became shadowed with fear
For as I drew closer it became clear,
That the Gates to the Heavens were firmly closed.
I turned back and found her below on the land
Her face buried deep within trembling hands,
Beseeching her Father in Heaven with soft, aching moans.
PRE-CHORUS 2:
I flew up through the skies
and soared to the Gates of Heaven so high,
But with all of my might and all of my strength
I could not move the doors.
CHORUS 2:
But I am a prayer
I am an honest heartfelt plea,
I humbly beg and ask
With mercy please answer me
Let me come through, let my dreams come true.
VERSE 3:
Then everything changed, as she stood alone
With only her faith to cling and hold on to
She melted inside, and started to cry,
and I gathered each tear –
each tear that fell from her eyes.
PRE-CHORUS 3:
I flew up through the skies
and soared to the Gates of Heaven so high,
And with tears in my eyes and faith in my heart
I broke through the doors.
CHORUS 3:
I am a prayer
I am an honest heartfelt plea,
I humbly beg and ask
with mercy please answer me,
You let me come through
You let me come through
You let me come through.
Please let my dreams come true.
