She could sing like patsy cline, and preach like billy graham
                                                     G
Tears would stain the altar, when she'd sing just as I am
    C                                      F
She walked my down the aisle, where Jesus washed my sins away
                     G
I'm standing here today 'cause mama prayed
 
  C                          F               C
I never saw a mountain moved because my mama prayed
               Am       G
But she could sure move heaven
        C
I never saw her touch the multitudes
    F               C    Am                   G
But trust me when I say, she could sure touch heaven
        C                              F
Looking back she wouldn't quit, 'till all her kids were saved
                  G                 Am       C
I'm standing here today 'cause mama prayed
 
                                                 F          C
She could quote the old king james, and make the Bible come alive
                                                        G
She loved the old, old stories, you could see it in her eyes
    C                                  F
She made me want to know the Lord, and learn about His ways
                    C

Mama prayed when times were bad, mama prayed when times were good
     G                                       G
Mama prayed when folks were acting like they should
     G                                          F
Mama prayed because she loved them, saints and sinners all the same
     G                               F
Mama prayed for me the most in Jesus name
