Like a Prayer

Let me inspire you to pray!

Wherever you are, whatever you believe in, to whomever you pray to! Praying is a form of communication with something that is higher then ourselves. It's not the small "me" that always insists on being right, in control, and critical. Our higher selves have a deeper consciousness; a firmer truth.

I never got into Madonna back when she first came out. I was a Christian and Christians did  not listen to that kind of music. As I moved into and through Christianity I began to widen my horizons. I studied Buddhism, Zen meditation, and New Age thought. As I opened up to the rest of the music world I saw so much spirituality that I was shocked. We were taught that "worldly" music was "bad" for us.

Look at these words... listen to this song. Could this be Madonna creating something spiritual? I like to believe that it is!

Like a Prayer

Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

Chorus:

When you call my name its like a little prayer
Im down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know Ill take you there

I hear your voice, its like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, oh God I think Im falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

(chorus)

Like a child you whisper softly to me
Youre in control just like a child
Now Im dancing
Its like a dream, no end and no beginning
Youre here with me, its like a dream
Let the choir sing

(chorus)

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

Just like a prayer, Ill take you there
Its like a dream to me
