Beggars is the sixth studio recording (and seventh studio album release) by American rock band Thrice. It was released digitally through Vagrant Records in the UK on August 9, 2009 and in the US on August 11, 2009. A physical release containing bonus material was released on September 15, 2009.
Writing for Beggars began in January 2009, with the band aiming to make the record "a little more upbeat and energetic" following their two previous projects, Vheissu and The Alchemy Index, which they felt had a "sleepy feeling" to them. The recording process took place in a studio built by the band themselves in guitarist Teppei Teranishi's garage, with the aims being to save money and allow the band members to spend more time with their families.
Speaking about the record, vocalist and guitarist Dustin Kensrue stated:

Prayer (from the Latin precari "to ask earnestly, beg, entreat") is an invocation or act that seeks to activate a rapport with an object of worship through deliberate communication.
Prayer can be a form of religious practice, may be either individual or communal and take place in public or in private. It may involve the use of words, song or complete silence. When language is used, prayer may take the form of a hymn, incantation, formal creedal statement, or a spontaneous utterance in the praying person. There are different forms of prayer such as petitionary prayer, prayers of supplication, thanksgiving, and praise. Prayer may be directed towards a deity, spirit, deceased person, or lofty idea, for the purpose of worshipping, requesting guidance, requesting assistance, confessing transgressions (sins) or to express one's thoughts and emotions. Thus, people pray for many reasons such as personal benefit, asking for divine grace, spiritual connection, or for the sake of others.
Some anthropologists believe that the earliest intelligent modern humans practiced a form of prayer. Today, most major religions involve prayer in one way or another; some ritualize the act of prayer, requiring a strict sequence of actions or placing a restriction on who is permitted to pray, while others teach that prayer may be practiced spontaneously by anyone at any time.

ABC or abc may refer to:
You are the answered prayer
That I thought was never heard
But here you are in front of me
And I admit, I'm finding it hard to breathe and I believe
In answered prayer
I put away what I thought was youthful faith
But someone must have heard my silent cry
For here you are before my eyes
Now you know, you are the reason why I believe
In answered prayer
Some may try to convince me
That this is what everyone else feels
But I know that
God and I are the only ones
Who ever heard my appeal
(That's why)
You are the answered prayer
That I thought was never heard
But here you are in front of me
And I admit
I'm finding it hard to breathe
And I believe
In answered prayer
