Bono – American Prayer

Bono – American Prayer Lyrics

Artist: Bono
Song: American Prayer

This is my American Prayer
This is my American Prayer
And this is the time
So finish what you’ve started

And this is no time to dream
This is my American Prayer
And this is the room
We can turn off the dark tonight

Maybe then we might see
This is my American Prayer
Huh-uh…American Prayer
Huh-uh…American Prayer

And this is the ground
That keeps our feet from getting wet
And this is the sky over our head
And what you see

Depends on where you stand
And how you jump
Will tell you where you’re gonna land
Huh-uh…American Prayer

Huh-uh…American Prayer
My, oh my
Couldn’t get much higher
Let’s not kick out the darkness

Make the light…brighter
And these are the hands
What are we gonna build with them?
And this is the church you can’t see

Remember
And give me your tired
Your poor and huddled masses
You know they’re yearning to breathe free

This is my American Prayer
Huh-uh…American Prayer
Huh-uh…American Prayer
Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I’m not concerned about that now

I just want to do God’s will. And He’s allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I’ve looked over
And I’ve seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land!
When you get to the top of the mountain
Will you tell me what you see?

If you get to the top of the mountain
Remember me
When you get to the top of the mountain
Will you tell me what you see?

If you get to the top of the mountain
Remember, remember me
When you get to the top of the mountain
Will you tell me what you see?

If you get to the top of the mountain
Remember, remember me
