Prayer of a Common Man
The Fisk Jubilee Singers, Phil Vassar
Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
Daddy put in his forty years, got his gold watch, and then they sent him home. I never knew what a struggle was like until I cried tears on his stone. He was just a kinder-will lived and died on the layaway plan. But Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [Chorus] Alleluia, is anybody up there? Alleluia Does anybody care? Life takes its toll on the heart and soul, but I'm doing the best I can. Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. A little girl needed braces but it cost a couple thousand bucks. She has a beautiful smile but it'll be awhile on my new/used pickup truck. This house of cards I built is mortgaged to the hills and its sinking in the sand. Lord hear the prayer of a Common Man. [Chorus] I'm not looking for charity, I just need some clarity. I've got people counting on me. And I'm tired that's all I'm up against the wall. Lord hear me when I call. [Chorus] Lord hear the prayer of this Common Man.
