Prayer and A Bible

Hard times in a wasteland

Runnin' from my shame

Chasin' down another dead end

That don't numb the pain

I was searchin' for sweet relief

Like a lion, You called for me

I found freedom

Tradin' chains for my salvation

Holy fire from Heaven sparked revival

And I found healin'

In those ancient words of wisdom

I found what I was missin'

Livin' 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

Tradin' chains for my salvation

Holy fire from Heaven sparked revival

And I found healin'

In those ancient words of wisdom

I found what I was missin'

Livin' on a prayer and a Bible

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 (that's all I need)

Gimme that Genesis to Revelation (that's all I need)

Hold my hand through tribulation (that's all I need)

Livin' on a prayer and a Bible

I found freedom (oh-oh)

Tradin' chains for my salvation

Holy fire from Heaven sparked revival (revival)

And I found healin'

In those ancient words of wisdom (yeah, yeah)

I found what I was missin'

Livin' on a prayer and a Bible

John 3:16

A little bit more of You and me (on a prayer and a Bible)

That's all I need for survival

Gimme that Genesis to Revelation

Hold my hand through tribulation
