Love Like Prayer

[Verse 1] Soft like sunrise on the river of my soul You walked in quiet, but you made the broken whole I was wandering through shadows of my own design Till your spirit touched mine Your laughter broke the drought inside my chest Every prayer I never spoke, you understood the rest Now the silence sings a melody so clear Heaven brought you here [Pre-Chorus] Maybe fate was just a promise dressed in blue Maybe the Maker hid a hymn in your breath [Chorus] Your name Rolls through my spirit like thunder in June Your love Is the prayer my whole life walked into If mercy learned language It would speak you aloud And every lost prayer Would rise from the ground I swear the heavens knew Before time even moved You are the miracle My soul was born to prove [Verse 2] Moonlight dancing on your cocoa skin Ancient rhythms in the way you breathe me in Like the ancestors are whispering through time “Child, that love divine” Your heartbeat talking to my wounded past Sayin’ every broken season couldn’t last Now the universe is humming in our tune Under galaxies learning your shape [Pre-Chorus] Maybe fate was just a promise dressed in blue Maybe the Maker hid a hymn in your breath [Chorus] Your name Rolls through my spirit like thunder in June Your love Is the prayer my whole life walked into If mercy learned language It would speak you aloud And every lost prayer Would rise from the ground I swear the heavens knew Before time even moved You are the miracle My soul was born to prove [Bridge / Afro-Jazz Breakdown] Drums talking like thunder in July Horn cries rising to the sky I hear the elders in the wind say “Love like this don’t fade away” So I’ll hold your spirit like sacred flame Calling every star by your name [Breakdown (Soft Rhodes + Bass)] Love like prayer… Breathing in the air… You and me More than chance could ever be [Final Chorus / Climactic Duet] Your name Rolls through my spirit like thunder in June Your love Is the prayer my whole life walked into If mercy learned language It would speak you aloud And every lost prayer Would rise from the ground I swear the heavens knew Before time even moved You are the miracle My soul was born to prove [Outro (Spoken / Softly Sung)] Heaven wrote your name Inside my soul… Long before We ever met.
