our grandmother told us
to always pray
she instilled it in me
at my early days
so now that i'm a grown man
i was led astray
real believers know
we ought to always pray
make my request known
thru prayer and thanksgiving
highly favored
blessed to be living
i humbly bow
cause i need a touch
the prayers of the righteous
availeth much
sunday morning
at 10 minutes to 8
scripture would be read
grand momma would be gettin ready to pray
and the song she would sing
would be
grandma still prayin today
at 97 she's blessin me
daniel prayed 3 times a day
he knowed everything that the king did say
he prayed to god
the giver of all things
he would not bow
to another king
i'll be prayin
prayin for you
i'll be prayin
prayin for you
