Regardless of the religious-type language - which can be viewed as just dated - words like "pray" often find their way into day to day speech as placeholders for other words; in this case "hope".

And that "God" thrown into the salad: I risk I can take a guess from where your sentiment is coming but most people are not zealots and the "God" they appeal to is as best as far as possible from the clerical interpretation as it can get or at worst is just an appeal for a hope on something outside themselves to keep them hopeful for a better day.

Let people be.

Please.
