The Wings Of Mama's Prayers


I'd been to Church on Sunday, and I'd been in jail
And I put my family through livin' hell
And I'd 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

I see her by the bed with her 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

I was lost in the darkness searching for the end
But the light of Mama's love led me back again
An' if I've got a place in Heaven, I'll get there,
On the wings of Mama's prayers

I see her by the bed with her 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

I'm still holding on to the wings of Mama's prayers
