Worry? Why Worry? Pray? Why Pray?

"Worry? Why worry? What can worry do?
It never keeps a trouble from overtaking you.
It gives you indigestion and sleepless hours at night
And fills with gloom the days, however fair and bright.

It puts a frown upon your face, and sharpness in the tone.
We're unfit to live with others and unfit to live alone;
Worry? Why worry? What can worry do?
It never keeps a trouble from over taking you!

Pray? Why pray? What can praying do?
Praying really changes things, arranges life anew.
It's good for your digestion, gives you peaceful sleep at night
And fills the grayest, gloomiest day with rays of glowing light.

It puts a smile upon your face, the love note in your tone,
Makes you fit to live with others, and fit to live alone.
Pray? Why pray? What can praying do?
It brings God down from Heaven, to live and work with you!"
