“I Pray” is track ten on The Rarities. Mariah wrote this song back in 2005 for Hawaiian singer Lina Robins-Tamure, who was only twelve at the time. Carey’s version was a demo she recorded for Robins, before Robins premiered her version with a performance on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
Within the bookle...
[Intro]
Ooh, yeah
[Chorus]
Lord, I pray
That in my lifetime there will come a day
When the world will wake up with unclouded eyes
And there'll be no more need to cry
Won’t you bring that dream to life?
[Verse 1]
Oh Lord, I pray
Deliver us from bigotry and hate
Please give shelter to the wayward children
And comfort them and keep them safe
[Verse 2]
Oh Lord, I pray
For a world with no weapons one day
Please give wisdom to the ones who lead us
Jesus, help them find thеir way
[Bridge]
Oh, I'm praying that the love you shower down on us
Will lift us up and wе will live as one
I know there'll come a day
I know you’ll make a way
Please listen as I pray
[Chorus]
Lord, I pray (Lord, I pray)
That in my lifetime there will come a day
When the world will wake up with unclouded eyes
And there'll be no more need to cry
Won't you bring that dream to life?
[Outro]
Lord, I pray (Lord, I pray)
That in my lifetime there will come a day (There will come a time)
When we all can open up our hearts and minds
And see we're all the same inside
Won't you bring that dream to life?
Won't you bring that dream to life?
