Lyrics Leela James

Leela James

Prayer

Oh, oh, oh

Livin' in a cold, cold world

Sometimes it gets hard and you feel like

You can't make it out

When I was just a little girl

My momma told me don't you worry

Hold your head

And wear a smile

'Cause you're gonna have days

When you feel like things ain't goin' your way

Just take a moment

And pray

Where would I be? (I don't know)

Where would I be?

Where would I be?

If you ain't never heard a prayer from me?

What would I do?

What would I do?

What would I do

If I didn't have you to be there for me?

And I'm so thankful for

All the things you've done

Showing me right from wrong

And cleansing my soul

When all my friends turned their back on me

You made me see

You're the only one I need

Way in the midnight hour

I called your name

'Cause I knew you were watchin' over me

And I don't know just where I'd be

If somebody never said a prayer for me

And I thank you, Lord

Where would I be without you?

And what would I do?

I just want to thank you, Lord

For never leaving my side

Through my trials

And all my tribulations

You stayed beside me

And I thank you

I just want to thank you, Lord
