Dear Lord,
ask me what it is that I want
so that I might have.
I will not ask for too much
not even for a painless life
but please divide my pain in halves.
Dear Lord,
If you consider my ways
I bet you'd be amazed
I will not ask for too much
I wouldn't want to get you dazed
so please let my temptations be phased.
Dear Lord,
I want to be rich and famous
It's a tip of the iceberg
I am not asking for too much
don't want to be like zucckerberg
just take away the tumbling blocks.
