The Wings Of Mama's Prayers lyrics

I've been to church on Sunday
And I've been in jail
And I put my family
Through living 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 a Bible open wide
Lookin' 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
And 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 a Bible open wide
Lookin' 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
