Say A Prayer For Louisiana

A stream-of-consciousness song relating to the various news of the day following the impact of Hurricane Katrina on the gulf coast. It’s just a song about being good to other people.

Say a prayer for Louisiana
Say a prayer for the missing child
Say a prayer for the grieving mother
Wash away the pain, away the pain

Say a prayer for the miner’s families
Say a prayer for the President
Say a prayer for those who hate us
Open up our hearts, and our eyes

One by one we love them
One by one they are freed
It’s by the giving of yourself to another
We finally find peace

Sing a song in desperation
Make a wish for a better world
Commit a random act of kindness
Be a friend to those, who need a friend

Ignore the words of the tired and jaded
They secretly hope you prove them wrong
And then they’ll join us in this anthem
And sing a better song, to our King

One by one we love them
One by one they are freed
It’s by the giving of yourself to another
We finally find peace
