Analysis of The soul of hope
I prayed to God
God gave me a mouth to talk in
I prayed to God
God gave me shoes to walk in
I prayed to God
God gave me food within
I prayed to God
God gave me water to soak in
I prayed to God
God gave me a home to sleep in
I prayed to God
God gave me a new life to live in
I prayed to God
God gave me a smile to thrive in
