(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
My memories
Of my brothers and me
Make me
Marvel at the way the years went by
Here we are
How'd we ever get this far
I wonder how
And I wonder why
When I recall what these boys often sung
And we would stop to look at Mom and Daddy's door
They'd bow their heads
While they knelt beside their bed
And we could hear them lift our names before the Lord
Momma prayed
And Jesus stood beside us
Daddy prayed
And the devil had to run
God looked down
And his angles guarded
Through the harder days
'Cause Momma prayed
And Daddy prayed
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
Now the boys are grown
Raising boys of their own
In a world a little darker than before
But the prayers go on
Every night and every dawn
'Cause they still bow and lift our names before the Lord
Momma prays
And Jesus stands beside us
Daddy prays
And the devil has to run
'Cause God looks down
And his angles guards us
Through the harder days
'Cause Momma prays
And Daddy prays
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
Momma prays
And Jesus stands beside me
Daddy prays
And the devil has to run
'Cause God looks down
And his angles guard me
Through the harder days (harder days)
'Cause Momma prays
And Daddy prays
And Jesus stands beside me
Momma prays
And the devil has to run
God looks down
And his angles guard me
Through the harder days (harder days, harder days)
'Cause Momma prays
And Daddy prays (prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down) Momma prays
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
And Daddy prays
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down) Momma prays
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
(Prayers went up and they never came down)
