Pray for Them

Our thoughts and prayers extinguish flame
They  won't go on suffering
Our  hopes disclaim, alleviate our pain
And in his name we are proud to be ordained
We won't accept cognitive dissonance
We  deeply care but we are powerless from here

We  pray for them
We pray for them
We  pray for them

The barrier protects us from defeat
Shelter from the clash of evidence and old beliefs
Our hopes and fears, respectively inane
And  in his name we are certain to be saved
We will not bear existential grief
We'll never be powerless without relief

God of the gaps accounting
Faith and denial compounding
Throw your hands up in the air
And pray for them
Pray for them
Pray for them
We pray for them
We pray for them
We pray for them

We pray for them
We pray for them
We pray for them
