Tourniquet

Lyrics You get what you pray for Tourniquet

 850

You get what you pray for


[Words & Music by Guy Ritter]

All of a sudden
This big world will end
Bollions of people
Will wish it never began

Let us pray

No amount of wisdom
Stature or wealth
Will impress the ever-loving God
Or (that is) Christ Himself

Let us pray

You get what you pray for
Forgiveness and grace Lord
Ohh - That's what I need
You get what you pray for
Salvation is there for you
Get on your knees

Do you really think
That God grades on a curve
When all of the answers
Are found in the Word

Let us pray

Who shall you blame
When you're standing in flames
Ya can't pray to Jesus
He won't know your name

Let us pray

You get what you pray for
And that's what it's there for
Ohh - That's what I need
You get what you pray for
And God knows what's best for you
Oh - Get on your knees

You say there's so many things that you need
You never get them cause they would decieve (you)
A man can't stumble
When he's on his knees

So let us pray!

All of sudden
God's grace will be torn
Billion's of hell bound
Will wish they never were born

Let us pray

None of your excuses
Or shattering yells
Will turn the head of God
Who once called for your help

Lets us pray

You get what you pray for
And that's what it's there for
Oh - that's what I need
You get what you pray for
What more could you ask for
Oh - but ya gotta believe!

You say there's so many things that you need
You never listen so you won't receive
Seek first the kingdom He knows what you need before you pray

You get what you pray for

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics YOU GET WHAT YOU PRAY FOR of TOURNIQUET is also present in the album Stop the bleeding (1990)

Biografia

Tourniquet is an American Christian thrash metal band active since 1987.

Tourniquet is known for its aggressive and complex music, which combines elements of thrash metal with progressive and melodic influences. The lyrics often address religious and philosophical themes, exploring issues of faith, morality, and social justice.
