One Life To Do It

[Verse 1: DMX]

Let us pray

Lord Jesus, it is You who wakes me up every day and I am forever grateful for Your love, this is why I pray

You let me touch so many people and it's all for the good

I influence so many children, I never thought that I would

And I couldn't take credit for the love they get

Because it all comes from You, Lord, I'm just the one that's giving it

And when it seems like the pressure gets to be too much

I take time out and pray, and ask that You be my crutch

Lord, I am not perfect by a long shot, I confess to You daily

But I work harder every day and I hope that You hear me

In my heart I mean well, but if You'll help me to grow, then what I have in my heart will begin to show

And when I get going, I'm not looking back for nothing

'Cause I will know where I'm headed, 'cause I'm so tired of the suffering

I stand before You a weakened version of Your reflection

Begging for direction for my soul needs resurrection

I don't deserve what You've given me, but You never took it from me

'Cause I am grateful, and I use it, and I do not worship money

If what You want from me is to bring Your children to You

My regret is only having one life to do it, instead of two

[Verse 2: MC Lyte & DMX]

I'm gonna stand with you, D, on that one, right here, right now, I agree

We touch and agree

This prayer, Father God, I ask for all Your angels, every single angel to lay hands on the world, Lord

Heal us, give us strength as we face the unknown, and let the unknown trouble us none

Lord God, we thank You for how You provide safety against every and all evil

We thank You for allowing us to praise Your holy, holy name for our keeping

Give us prayer to guide us, thank You, and forsake what is unjust and what is unbearable

So many suffering, Lord God, I ask that You spare none who judge and who punish Your people

Lord, we need a healing over this land

Let us put our minds high above the fray, Lord God, put our vision on You and You alone

Though things of this worldly existence are meant to pull us down, Lord, I pray that You lift us up

Lift us high, and let our faith give way to new hope and our hope to the manifestation of what You've promised

God, we put our trust in You and You alone

In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit

Amen, Amen, Amen

Amen
