He Feeds You Everyday



Pray away, pray all day
Pray all day and night
It doesn’t matter what you say
If you won’t do it right

If you won’t listen to the LORD
Then he won’t hear your prayers
You should have stopped; obeyed the law
And given him your cares

You see just how he cares for you
He feeds you everyday
You won’t have to do tricks for him
He doesn’t want your pay

He isn’t your big daddy
Or some pimp who walks your streets
Preying on poor little girls
Who can’t wash their own feet

He only came to bring you home
To rest on your estate
And then he’ll get you prettied up
To go out on a date
