Just blue, God,
Just blue.
Ain’t prayin’ exactly just now,
Here blinded, I guess,
Can’t see my way through.
You know these things
I asked for so many times.
Maybe I hadn’t,
Or to repeat it
Like it the Pharisees do.
But I ain’t stood
In no marketplace.
It’s just between
Me and You.
And You said
Ask somehow.
I ain’t askin now.
And I hardly know
What to do.
Hope just sort of left
But faith’s still here,
Faith ain’t gone too.
I know how ‘tis is
A thousand years
Is a single day with You.
And I ain’t meaning
To tempt You
With “if You be.”
And I ain’t doubtin’ You,
But I ain’t prayin’ today, God,
Just blue,
Just blue.
