so much for praying

Jesus can you hear me

Jesus do you care

I look for you always

but I don't see you anywhere

Jesus can you help me

Jesus are you there

why don't you hear me

Jesus I am scared

I don't want to give up hope

I don't want to disbelieve

but Jesus I need you now

now is my time of need

          times like these I find myself

          with my faith decaying

          I don't want to tell myself

          so much for praying

Jesus are you listening

Jesus where are you now

I want so bad to believe

but I don't know how

Jesus where are you now

Jesus I feel alone

please don't desert me

I can't make it on my own

I need to have you in my life

I'm desperate as you can see

nothing is working anymore

please don't ignore me

          times like these I find myself

          without words worth saying

          I don't want to tell myself

          so much for praying
