Teach Me How to Pray

[Verse 1]
I've been feeling this fire
Been warming my bones by the flames of your pyre
Temptation burns
But I can't stop 'cause I like the way it hurts

[Pre-Chorus]
I need you
Let me take you

[Chorus]
Higher, higher
Lay me in the river
Wash your sins away
Higher, higher
I'm on my knees now
Teach me how to pray
Lay me in the river
Wash your sins away
Open your mouth now
Teach me how to pray

[Verse 2]
Call you savior
You deliver me from this lonely daze
I had no idea
I was blind until you made me a witness

[Bridge]
Holy water, drink it in
Tastes like heaven on my lips
Holy water, let it rinse
The devil that lives within

[Pre-Chorus]
I need you
Let me take you

[Chorus]
Higher, higher
Lay me in the river
Wash your sins away
Higher, higher
I'm on my knees now
Teach me how to pray
Lay me in the river
I won't be afraid
Open your mouth now
Teach me how to pray

[Post-Chorus]
Pray, pray
Higher, higher
Lay me in the river
Wash your sins away
Higher, higher
I'm on my knees now
Teach me how to pray

[Chorus]
Higher, higher
Lay me in the river
Wash your sins away
Higher, higher
I'm on my knees now
Teach me how to pray
Spread the word
Tell me, how'd it taste?
Open your mouth now
Teach me how to pray

[Outro]
Pray, pray
Pray, pray
