LYRICS:
This waiting world is half awake
Silhouettes in the morning light
This old train is running slow
Even the lost need somewhere to go
I think this thing is near the end
I know the facts I can't pretend
All those immovable things
Are just shadows in the grey
This a prayer to St. Jude
Helper of the hopeless on their way
This is a prayer to St. Jude
Won't you help me
Please come today
I keep on staring at the same old screen
Nothing seems to be happening
I keep on waiting for the words to change
Like somehow they could rearrange
This a prayer to St. Jude
Helper of the hopeless on their way
This is a prayer to St. Jude
Won't you help me
Please come today
They say you do impossible things
My faith is smaller than a mustard seed
I never saw a mountain throw itself in to the sea
Is it really inside the realms of possibility?
I think this thing is near the end
Would you say if it was gone?
Won't you help me St. Jude
It's an impossible cause
and they say that you could maybe help me push it along
This a prayer to St. Jude
Helper of the hopeless on their way
This is a prayer to St. Jude
Won't you help me
Please come today

Beautiful song John. Hopelessness is hard to beat and some things just don’t change. I wonder if St Jude heard this. I think perhaps so.
I think he did Rose. I was up against a wall in a situation and it is moving to something better. I hope this song helps others along the way. Thanks for your comments. 😀
What a great song and lyrics are so good.. Love the snare sound.
Thank you Peter. Really glad you enjoyed this one. I almost thought, and still think a bit thatt tge snare was too much.. but it's good to hear you liked it...made me happier. 😀
Loved this!! 🙏💕💕
Glad that you lived it. Have a great day. 😀
Extremely beautiful✨🎵 song.. Excellent💯👍👏
John you are simply the best👍
Thanks so much Teron. I just hope the song shines a little light. Thanks for your kind words. 😀
How did you make a song out of hopelessness
I got hopeless and then needed to find some way out. Found out there was actually a guy for that... figured that would make a great song...
❤ Your guitar knows how to talk keep it SPEAKING 🎶🎸 John
Thanks very much William. I will indeed keep the guitar speaking. 😀
Bien John !!!!!👌🎸✨🇦🇷
Thanks so much Chino. Have a great day. 😀

👍👍 BIG like 65
I wish you a happy weekend ... Fons.
Thanks so much Fons. Really appreciate it and your kind words. Hope you have a great day. 😀
You just keep laying 'em down and knocking 'em outta the park. I can always count on you for something smooth and cool, John. 👏👏🎸🎸❤❤
Thanks so much Gary for those kind words. You do want each song if possible to be as good or better than the last... it does get tough sometimes, but glad you are enjoying it. 😀
I agree and on some songs, I feel like I took a step backward, but I keep plugging along 🥴😊
@garyschafer-thepickinpilot9010 so true Gary.. some songs I write I know they are not at the tier of the other ones. But, I've learnt that you have to let em through as they need to be heard too, and if you don't, you stifle those top tier ones.....as you say.. we keep plugging my friend.. 😀

I love the phrase "Even the lost need somewhere to go." Certainly nothing in life endures. Fantastic groove and song! Excellent production! Super cool👍👍
Thanks so much Daniel. I really live it when people enjoy specific lyrics. Glad you enjoyed this. Keep rocking 😎
The voice, the soulful delivery, a true gift to the world. A slice of perfection.
Very kind of you to say Bob. I'm glad you like it. I thought it was one of my better ones, but not getting as many views, go figure :)
All I can say "it's one of your best".
Thanks - I appreciate it.
Another beautiful song, John. Your vocals carry a nice touch of emotion in all your songs, and this one is no exception.
Thank you Joe. I really appreciate those kind words. I'm not a religious guy per se, but liked the idea of appealing to something when all seems hopeless. I really thought folks would like this one, but it's proved not too popular. I think perhaps the religious overtones....
Wow, beautiful 💘 This is today's highlight
That's great Ile. I'm glad this song has been a highlight of the day. I was hoping it would be uplifting for folks. 😀
👌👍💯
Thanks so much Maria!
