Emeli Sandé - Prayed Up lyrics

In times like these we gotta love
And try and trust each other
I am your sister and youʼre
Always gonna be my brother
In times like these we gotta make
Sure hate donʼt start to poison
Before you know it streams can
Quickly turn into an ocean
To all the doctors, teachers
Nurses and to all keys workers
You are our inspiration
Have all our admiration
See all the rainbows in the
Windows painted by the children
Thank you thank you

Everybody stay safe stay prayed up
Itʼs time to show the world
What youʼre really made of stay safe
Stay prayed up
Things are gonna get much brighter
Come on I know youʼre a fighter

In times like these we gotta hold
On tighter to our families
And separate the who we wanna be
From who we have been
Dig little deeper give your
Soul much needed conversation
I made a pinky promise with
Myself to make some changes
Iʼm praying for all people locked in
Houses theyʼre not safe in
In times like these inequalities
Becoming oh so blatant
Some people good some people numb
Some people still ain't eating
Please God we need some healing

Everybody stay safe stay prayed up
Itʼs time to show the world
What youʼre really made of
So stay safe, stay prayed up
Things are gonna get much brighter
Come on I know youʼre a fighter
Stay safe, stay prayed up
Things are gonna get much brighter
I know youʼre a fighter

Thank you for the life Iʼm living
Thank you for the strength youʼre giving
Even in these times so different
Your love remains the same, no different
When I need my spirit lifted
I can count on your assistance
Grant us peace and grant us patience
Let us see souls before races
(Let us see souls before races)
Give us hope to stay united
(Give us hope to stay united)
Come to far to be divided
(Come to far to be divided)
Thank you for all youʼre providing
(I thank you for all youʼre providing)
Thank you, thank you

Everybody stay safe (Stay safe)
Stay prayed up (Stay prayed up)
Itʼs time to show the world
What youʼre really made of
Stay safe (Stay safe)
Stay prayed up (Stay prayed up)
Things are gonna get much brighter
I know youʼre a fighter
