Say It That Way

Say It That Way
Say It That Way

VERSE 1
Did you wake up this morning and wish that you hadn’t
Is it day after day of depression and sadness
Does it feel like you live in the valley of darkness
When you pray, say it that way

VERSE 2
Are you desperate to see a divine intervention
Is somebody you love in the trenches of treatment
Do you wonder why some do and some don’t get healing
When you pray, say it that way

CHORUS
Come as you are, speak from your heart
It’s not about the perfect language
Yell in the car, cry out in the dark
Don’t hold back, He can take it
If you’re ready to be honest
Cause it’s too hard to be fake
When you pray, say it that way

VERSE 3
Is it hard to believe in a higher existence
Does reading your Bible just lead to more questions
If you want something real and you’re sick of religion
When you pray, say it that way

CHORUS
Come as you are, speak from your heart
It’s not about the perfect language
Yell in the car, cry out in the dark
Don’t hold back, He can take it
If you’re ready to be honest
Cause it’s too hard to be fake
When you pray, say it that way

BRIDGE
He hears you, He sees you
He knows you, He loves you
This is the safest place
Here with the Savior, face to face
He made you, He saves you
He heals you, He holds you
This is the safest place
Here with the Savior, face to face

CHORUS
Come as you are, speak from your heart
It’s not about the perfect language
Yell in the car, cry out in the dark
Don’t hold back, He can take it
If you’re ready to be honest
Cause it’s too hard to be fake
When you pray, say it that way
