[Verse 1]
Yes, Jezebel warned me
She made an oath to her gods
She said, "I plan today to put an end to you"
I ducked out before then, and my road now is long
Let's just say this man could use some tennis shoes
[Chorus]
I've prayed fire, and I've prayed rain
I've seen sunny days and a drought that met their end
I've seen holy times when I could call down the flames
But that all was God, and I need Him again
[Verse 2]
Though I look down, I've got good reason
It's not real healthy to take a stand
That despot will slay me soon another day
My God, please take me now, my life's in Your hands
I won't make it -- let me pass away
[Chorus]
Oh, I've prayed fire, and I've prayed rain
I've seen sunny days and a drought that met their end
I've seen holy times when I could call down the flames
But that all was God, and I need Him again
[Verse 3]
Been walkin', I'm primed for some sleepy time
My nap turned short -- it's done
The Lord brought me a cold drink, though
And some bread -- I'm better now
With some powerful signs God would tell me don't whine
He talked about things to come
Please see First Kings 19 and read the long account
[Chorus]
Oh, I've prayed fire, and I've prayed rain
I've seen sunny days and a drought that met their end
I've seen holy times when I could call down the flames
But that all was God, and I need Him greatly
Lots more times than then, now
[Outro]
Lord, I need You lots more times than then
There's just a cruel queen cursin' my name
And my morale was down
Lord, I need You -- Lord, I need You night and day, now
Na-na-na, na-na na-na, na na na
