Song Story: THE MUSIC:
It took 11 months for me to finish developing this song... a long time for me. (With God's empowering, and the 2 studios He began providing in 2010, we average publishing 5 songs per month).
I believe God was waiting until I learned about 7/4 time.... I never had even heard of it until I "accidentally" found a drummer CD that included this info. Nothing else had fit my concept... and 7/4 and 5/4 fit it perfectly, creating an off-balance feel that matches the words. Creator God has some pretty exciting concepts to entrust to us humans whom He honors with co-creation such as for music and art.
THEN I accidentally hit the transpose button, and recorded Part 3 in a different key... which I didn't realize until I got home after that part's recording session. When I “goof” I always pray to see if there's some way to use the goof (see song “God Guided Goofs”). And God surely guided this one -- the GOOF key change bridge between the sections added a perfect transition from fear to praise!

Song Story: THE SCRIPTURE SUPPORT:
.“In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express..” -- Romans 8:26
“Con” means “against” fusion -- against “having it all together” or feeling in control of all the parts of your life.
But “Con” also means “WITH” --
and prayers fuses us to be WITH God, “all together.”
(This is NOT an “autobiographical” song (for which I deeply thank God). It applies to 1000s... and I pray it will help many people.)

LYRICS
PART 1
1
A pile of bills on my table.
Confusion reigns! Don't feel able
to figure out how I'll pay these!
My fears and doubts drive me to knees
2
Doctor can't see why there's such pain
Suggests I get new opinion
Says maybe hope. Still my tears spill.
New doctor means new doctor bill.
Don't know what to say - my thoughts freeze.
Don't know what to pray so God's pleased.
Don't know HOW to pray -- what words mean
BUT I know WHAT words -- "God help me!”
Mark Nine: Two-Four, "God help me.... believe!"
[Mark 9: 24]
PART 2
3
Just what is prayer? Supplication?
Some people say invocation.
Others say pray adoration.
HOW DO I PRAY WITH CONFUSION??
4
Some people say prayer's confession.
Some say prayer is intercession.
I JUST WANT TO PRAY SIMPLE WORDS,
JUST WANT TO SPEAK AND KNOW GOD'S HEARD!
Jesus promised in John Fourteen
"Ask and God hears and you'll receive
IF you trust God and want His will.”
SO I know WHAT words ---- "God help me!"
Romans Eight: Two-Six--- God helps... me pray! [Romans 8: 26]
