Lyrics

Make Me A Nail Upon The Wall
I have this pr'yer in my heart while I'm singing
This is the Prayer I'm bringing
I want to be just a nail upon the wall
Hang a picture of your dear face.
May they see only your face
So others can learn of your grace.
Lord, make me a nail on the wall
So others don't see me at all.
