| Though my heart is heavy with grief
|
| My faith is strong, bring me relief
|
| Sometimes my dreams are closer
|
| Sometimes my feelings are so far away
|
| You’ve got a minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| Now I’ve got to fall down on my knees
|
| You can face the west, you can face the east
|
| My tired eyes can see the coming of a better day
|
| You’ve got a minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| A minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| It’s the last thing you hear
|
| The first thing you fear
|
| The sign of the wasted years
|
| And the pain with those tears
|
| Battles across the ocean, battles outside my door
|
| When night falls upon me, falls upon my mind
|
| Before I’d lay, before I’d lay, before I’d lay
|
| I take a minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| You get a minute to rest, just a second to pray
|
| You get a minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| You get a minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| You get a minute to rest and a second to pray
|
| Pray with the women you love
|
| Pray that the heaven’s above
|
| You got a second, you got a minute to rest
|
| Get it in your mind, take up the time
|
| You got a second to pray
|
| Don’t think about yesterday
|
| Take a minute to rest, take a second to pray
|
| You only got a minute to rest, to rest, to rest, to rest |
