Lyrics
Teach Me How To Pray I was in the chapel Down on bended knee I heard a "WORRIED" little voice From the pew in front of me Her voice was like a whisper In between her cries I listened to every word As tears fell from her eyes My mommy needs a miracle------------------------ Chorus I heard the doctor say She might not make it through the night Please teach me how to pray My mommy needs a miracle Would you help me today I know you’re out there Jesus Please teach me how to pray I know I lay me down to sleep And thank you for this food And "MAY I HAVE A PUPPY" Cause I’ve been very good But this is more important Than any of that stuff I need the words to ask you To make it mean enough My mommy needs a miracle------------------------ Chorus I heard the doctor say She might not make it through the night Please teach me how to pray My mommy needs a miracle Would you help me today I know you’re out there Jesus Please teach me how to pray Turnaround 4 Bars Modulation from V &C chords I saw her in the chapel------------------------- Bridge On the coming morn She didn't look as tearful Or sound so quite forlorn Mommy made it through the night------------------------ Chorus I heard the doctor say It really is a miracle That she is here today Thank you Lord for teaching And helping me to pray I know you’re out there Jesus I only had to pray I know you’re out there Jesus I only had to pray Copyright 2008 John W.
