Pray to God - New Original Song (Sneak Peak!)

Hi everyone! I decided to share a private sneak peak into a new original song that I wrote. I plan to add music later on, but for now it's just the vocals. If you have any advice feel free to tell me! If you think I should change the lyrics or melody or even if harmonies should be added please do tell. Well here it is!



Here are the lyrics:

Every night I lie down on my pillow
And cry myself to sleep
Every night I think of someone special
Who doesn't think the same of me

I try to hold my head up high and smile every day
But now I'm tired and tired of being this way

So I'll pray to God
Please forgive my sins
Please help me find a way out of this mess that I got in
I'll praise your name
I'll sing a hymn
I'll do it all through Jesus -- Amen

I run my finger through all of the chapters
Where do I start
I run in circles trying to find the answer
I wish I knew it in my heart

I read it page by page and I began to understand
So from now on I'll leave my life in God's hands

So I'll pray to God
Please forgive my sins
Please help me keep away from all that mess that I was in
I'll praise your name
I'll sing a hymn
I'll do it all through Jesus -- Amen

Sometimes I take one step back
I want to move forward
Sometimes I'm proud of myself
That pride moves me backwards

And I try and try and try and try
I can't without you by my side
So I'll pray and pray and pray and pray to God

So I'll pray to God
Please forgive my sins
Please help me find a way out of this mess that I got in
I'll praise your name
I'll sing a hymn
I'll do it all through Jesus
I'll do it all through Jesus
I'll do it all through Jesus -- Amen
