lyrics

Oh daddy, dear daddy,
Will you fix my toy?
It must’ve been broke by
That mean neighbor boy,
And while you repair it
I’m going to help you
Then he said, “If you’ll just give it here,
I’ll give it back when I’m through.

Oh mommy, dear mommy,
Will you fix my heart?
I should’ve known he would break it,
There were signs from the start.
Now, I must stop this sorrow,
And make my heart new.
Then she said, “If you’ll just give it here,
I’ll give it back when I’m through.”

So I pray and thank you God
I know that you’re right
You can’t fix my problems
While I’m holding them tight,
But I’m learning a lesson
I want you to know
The best part of praying
Is letting it go.

Oh Spirit, dear Spirit,
Will you fix my life?
I can no longer stand
All this struggle and strife.
You’ll not fix it alone,
I’ll do all I can do.
Then I heard, “If you’ll just give it here,
I’ll give it back when I’m through.”

So I pray and thank you God
I know that you’re right
You can’t fix my problems
While I’m holding them tight,
But I’m learning a lesson
I want you to know
The best part of praying
Is letting it go.
