Elizabeth Cook Mama's Prayers lyrics

I'm not in The Hall of Fame,
I'm not on the Walk of Shame,
I guess you'll find me in-between somewhere.
Things go right and things go wrong
Sometimes you'll hear me sing this song
You'll always find me in my Mama's prayers.

Sure as the skies will turn dark at the end of the day
The angels must count on what she's gonna say
Now I know I'm at least one of five other names
When I'm down and think nobody cares,
I remember that I'm in my Mama's prayers.

Not everybody has a mom and no one does forever long
and I used to think well Lord that's just not fair
but I believe your words are for always
and they won't end with todays
and I'm grateful to be in my Mama's prayers


Sure as the skies will turn dark at the end of the day
The angels must count on what she's gonna say
Now I know I'm at least one of five other names
When I'm down and think nobody cares
I remember that I'm in my Mama's prayers

I don't always know what to believe
and I don't always know everything I need
but faithfully my name is called each night,
by quilted bedside,
and the Devil may come seek me on a dare
But he'll be up against my Mama's prayers.

When I'm down and think nobody cares,
I remember that I'm in my Mama's prayers.
