The first section is about a girl complaining to her friend that is a guy about how her boyfriend left her.
The second part:
"Well I'm standing here right next to me
I got no girl to listen to me
What can I do?
What can I do?"
It is now the man talking, and he is basically saying "I am next to you for you to talk to, but I need to be strong for you" so he has no one to talk to but himself. And for whatever reason, he can't tell the girl what is bothering him.
Then the part about prayer is saying he loves this girl so much, he almost deitizes her. Now instead of "prayers" they are "pleas" and he begs her to be with him.
That isn't a fully fleshed out explanation, but you can fill in the blanks from there. I interpret as a guy trying to exit the 'friendzone'.
And its probably the singers point of view, probably some reference to a crisis of faith when he was homeless after his house burned down and his fiancee left him
