Elizabeth Cook - Mama's Prayers lyrics

I'm not in the hall of fame I'm not on the wall of shame I guess you'll find me in between somewhere Things go right and things go wrong Sometimes you hear me sing a song But you'll always find me in my mama's prayers Sure as the skies will turn dark At the end of the day The angels must count On what she's going to say And I know I'm at least one of five other names When I'm down and think nobody cares I remember that I'm in my mama's prayers Not everybody has a mom And no one does for very long And I used to think "well, lord that's just not fair." But I believe the words are for always And they won't end with today's And I'm grateful to be in my mama's prayers Sure as the skies will turn dark At the end of the day The angels must count On what she's going to say And I know I'm at least one of five other names When I'm down and think nobody cares I remember that I'm in my mama's prayers I don't always know what to believe And I don't always know everything I need But faithfully my name is called each night By quilted bedside And the devil may come seek me on a dare He'll be up against my mama's prayers When I'm down and think nobody cares I remember I'm in my mama's prayers
