"I want to pray on my knees" (Song)

"I want to pray on my knees"

I come to you each day when life don’t seem fair

I come to seek an answer with a prayer

Things don’t always go my way when I struggle every day

I send my thoughts to you Lord in a prayer

Chorus

I want to pray on my knees Lord, until you are pleased

I want to pray on my knees Lord all day long

I want to pray on my knees ‘til my heart is at ease

I want to pray on my knees Lord with this song

I’m not a mountaineer but I’ve a mountain to climb

Not sure Lord if I’ll ever reach the peak

But I’ll trust you in the valley and I’ll trust you as I climb

I’ll open up my heart to hear you speak

Chorus

I want to pray on my knees Lord, until you are pleased

I want to pray on my knees Lord all day long

I want to pray on my knees ‘til my heart is at ease

I want to pray on my knees Lord with this song

Take this burden off my shoulders Lord

I’m buckling inside

Take this burden off my shoulders Lord

I’ve got nowhere to hide

Take this burden off my shoulders Lord

I’m broken in two

Help me Lord to put my trust in you

When this journey is o’er Lord I’ll give my thanks to you

You know that I’m carryin’ a heavy load

I will sing your praises Lord with destination in sight

You’re my compass as I travel on this road

Chorus

I want to pray on my knees Lord, until you are pleased

I want to pray on my knees Lord all day long

I want to pray on my knees ‘til my heart is at ease

I want to pray on my knees Lord with this song

"All alone at Christmas" (Song)

"All alone at Christmas"

(Christmas 1988)

It’s Christmas day and I’m all alone, my boys, they don’t come around

It’s been that way since I divorced, their mum ain’t all that sound

They didn’t realize just how I felt, the hurt I felt deep inside

The emptiness in my heart that day, the Christmas day that I cried

Chorus

I’m all alone on Christmas day and I sure do miss my boys

As I look under the Christmas tree I can see all their toys

They’re not around to open them they’re mum won’t let them go

I’m gonna’ have a blue blue Christmas now and no-one will ever know

The thoughts that are running through my head

They’re really not that good

I’m feelin’ at my lowest now I wish someone understood

It’s really been something that I dread my heart’s in disarray

I know that I’d rather be dead not seeing my boys on Christmas day

Chorus

I’m all alone on Christmas day and I sure do miss my boys

As I look under the Christmas tree I can see all their toys

They’re not around to open them they’re mum won’t let them go

I’m gonna’ have a blue blue Christmas now and no-one will ever know

Christmas is happenin’ in all the homes, other families are having fun

I know that life shouldn’t feel this way, God; I wish I had a gun

The loneliness just breaks my heart, I know, no-one really cares

I close my eyes just one more time, as I say another prayer

Chorus

I’m all alone on Christmas day and I sure do miss my boys

As I look under the Christmas tree I can see all their toys

They’re not around to open them they’re mum won’t let them go

I’m gonna’ have a blue blue Christmas now and no-one will ever know

I’m gonna’ have a blue blue Christmas now and no-one will ever know
