Momma Prayed Lyrics




[Verse 1]

Yeah well I get it wrong more than I get it right

I'm always crawlin' my way back into the light

I've felt joy, and I've known pain

I've been through a lot, I've always weathered the rain

There's been a few days when I wake

The last thing I wanna see is my own face

But even through the pain and even through the shame

I still cling to my ways



[Chorus]

It's a good thing Momma prayed

And sent the good Lord my way

'Cause I know on my own

This boy had lost his way

I still got a lot to learn

And I'll always make mistakes

That's why everyday I thank God

I thank God Momma prayed



[Verse 2]

Well I've always been told that His grace is enough

And I believe it now that I gave it a run

Now if there was an end to all he could forgive

There'd be no way I'd get in, no



[Chorus]

It's a good thing Momma prayed

And sent the good Lord my way

'Cause I know on my own

This boy had lost his way

I still got a lot to learn

And I'll always make mistakes

That's why everyday I thank God

I thank God Momma prayed

Oh Momma prayed



[Verse 3]

Well there's gonna come a day

When I stand before the gates

I look right in, my Savior's face

I know I'll stand and sing

Oh I'm gonna stand and sing

Thank God Momma prayed
