BE REAL TO ME
MY LORD, MY PRAYER, MY ONLY PRAYER
IS NOT FOR THINGS TO SEE
OR HEAR OR WEAR OR EAT OR CARE:
BUT THAT YOU WOULD BE REAL TO ME.
MY LORD, I BEG OF YOU NO MIRACLE FANTASTIC
NO MOVING OF MOUNTAIN OR WALKING OF SEA
I BEG FOR NO SPECIAL EFFECTS KIND OF GLORY
BUT THAT DEEP DOWN INSIDE YOU'D BE REAL TO ME.
SOME PEOPLE ASK FOR FAME AND FORTUNE
SOME PEOPLE ASK FOR ALL THEIR EYES SEE
SOME PEOPLE ASK FOR THINGS THEY DON'T NEED
BUT LORD, I NEED YOU TO BE REAL TO ME.
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE I'M JUST ON THE EDGE
JUST BEYOND THE VEIL, A WHISPER AWAY
FROM TOUCHING YOUR HAND AND SEEING YOUR FACE
AND FINDING THE DOOR TO THE PLACE THAT YOU STAY.
I KNOW YOU ARE THERE, SOMEWHERE YOU ARE THERE
IN ANOTHER DIMENSION, UNFETTERED BY TIME
I FEEL YOUR EYES ON ME, I FEEL YOUR HEART LOVE ME
AND I WANT SO TO SEE YOU AND LOVE YOU WITH MINE.
YOU KNOW, IF THEY OFFERED ME THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD
WITH ALL OF IT'S TREASURES FROM MOUNTAIN TO SEA
I'D TURN THEM ALL DOWN FOR A MOMENT IN GLORY
IF YOU WOULD JUST TOUCH ME AND BE REAL TO ME.
NOT A MAN IN A STORY, A NAME IN A PRAYER
A LEGEND, A SONG, A CRUCIFIX SCENE
BUT A REAL LIVING SAVIOR, A FLESH AND BONE BEING
THAT'S MORE REAL AND MORE TRUE THAN MEN I HAVE SEEN.
OH, LORD, MY PRAYER, MY ONLY PRAYER
FOR IN MY HEART YOU SEE
THE VOID THAT ONLY YOU CAN FILL
WHEN YOU BECOME REAL TO ME.
By Voo
He answered my prayer
