I've Been To Church On Sunday

And I've Been In Jail

And I Put My Family

Through Living Hell

And I've Been A Heavy Cross To Bear

On The Wings Of Mama's Prayers



I Spent Her Last Dollar

On Somethin' Bad For Me

I Finally Hit Rock Bottom

Couldn't Get Up On My Knees

But The Strength Came To Lift Me Up From There

On The Wings Of Mama's Prayers



(Chorus)

I See Her By The Bed With A Bible Open Wide

Lookin' Up At Heaven With Tears In Her Eyes

She Knew When I Was Troubled

She Knew When I Was Scared

And I Found Salvation On The Wings

Of Mama's Prayers

(End Chorus)



I Was Lost In The Darkness

Searchin' For The End

But The Light Of Mama's Love

Led Me Back Again

And If I've Got A Place In Heaven I'll Get There

On The Wings Of Mama's Prayers



(Repeat Chorus)

I'm Still Holdin' On

To The Wings Of Mama's Prayers
