Charles Burgess- A Poem

A wing and a prayer

I look at my kids and I smile

I prayed for them now I know true love

The day they were born my life was complete

I was leaning on a wing and a prayer

I pray to my lord for all things to come true

I pray for the entire racism in the world to go away

That’s right I pray for all things

I pray for you to find your true happiness

In all things you do I pray for you

God is with you all day long

With the lord you cannot go wrong

I pray for those with cancer

Even if I don’t know you I pray for you

I sit on a wing and a prayer, I pray for all things

I pray for the kids that may find food

I pray for the parents who beat their children

I pray for all things, I pray for it not to rain

I will pray for you even if you do me wrong

I will pray you find god all day long

Do you believe in prayer?

Will you hit your knees and pray

I pray for you today

God is real god is great there is nothing that god tries to fake

Listen to my words if you see someone holding a sign do not point and stare

This person may be your angel

You never know what helping that person might do

I pray for you

That’s right I said I pray for you

With the lord I can do all things

With him by my side

He tears he wipes, my eyes fill with tears

I began to weep, my love for my lord runs deep

I pray for the little girl who cannot walk

I pray for the people who have had Ebola

And that they may be cured

I pray for all things this I do I will pray for you

I love my lord this I know to be true

Thank you lord I love you.
