How many times a pop star 

Can go under the knife

Seems to be the conversation makin rounds tonight

And standing at the bar two friends are lookin for a fight

Over what the Bible says is wrong or right



When someone made a movie about Jesus on the cross

A journalism war of what is truth and what is not

Was all that they could talk about everyday for weeks

And do you think that's how He wanted it to be



Lately I pray for a slow news day

'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page

For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved

Sometimes I wanna hide away the rain

For a slow news day



People are still good that I always will belive

But these it feels like everyone could use a little peace

Living in a world that filled with fear and worry

It might be time for us to hear a different story 



Lately I pray for a slow news day

'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page

For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved

Sometimes I wanna hide away the rain

For a slow news day



When I wake up I don't wanna see

Those headlines on the TV screen



Lately I pray for a slow news day

'Cause everything goods not bad enough for the front page

For every ten we lose we only hear of one that's saved

Sometimes I wanna hide away the rain

For a slow news day



A slow news day
