LAY HANDS ON ME

Writer's picture: Edwin JanneyEdwin Janney


Our ears are wide open

Our mouths all open

To feed on prophecies

To appease our fantasies


Lay hands on me dear pastor

My spiritual doctor

Touch to release my desire

Of all that I inquire


Where has our faith departed

Why is our faith retarded?

Do we dwell not on him no more

To be forever more


Some swing from tree to tree

Like monkeys in a spree

Combing new churches

Igniting new searches


Lay hands on me dear Prophet

Grant me life from your pocket

I know our prayer at times is lame

Our selves we cannot blame


Our bond with him will hold

If we can but be to our selves be bold

Bow our heads and brace ourselves

Reading his word, praying ourselves
