Lyrics
Hard times in a wasteland
Runnin from my shame
Chasin down another dead end
That don’t numb the pain
I was searching for sweet relief
Like a lion you called for me
I found freedom
Trading chains for my salvation
Holy fire from Heaven sparked revival
I found healing
In those ancient words of wisdom
I found what I was missin’
Living on a prayer and a bible
You’re my manna in the desert
You’re my daily bread
Ain’t nobody do it better
The way my soul gets fed
I found freedom
Trading chains for my salvation
Holy fire from Heaven sparked revival
I found healing
In those ancient words of wisdom
I found what I was missin’
Living on a prayer and a bible
Gimme that John 3:16
A little bit more of you and me
That’s all I need for survival
Gimme that Genesis to Revelation
Hold my hand through tribulation
Living on a prayer and a Bible
I found freedom
Trading chains for my salvation
Holy fire from Heaven sparked revival
I found healing
In those ancient words of wisdom
I found what I was missin!
Living on a prayer and a bible
Gimme that John 3:16
A little bit more of you and me
That’s all I need for survival
Gimme that Genesis to Revelation
Hold my hand through tribulation
Living on a prayer and a Bible
