The Wings Of Mama's Prayers
Jeff Bates Song Lyrics




(Jeff Bates Kris Bergsnes Terry Clayton)

I've been to church on Sunday and I've been in jail
I put my whole family through livin' 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

I see her by the bed with her Bible opened wide
Looking 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, searchin' for the end
But the light of Mama's love led me back again
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 opened wide
Looking 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 holdin' on
To the wings of Mama's prayers
