[Intro] [Soft organ, light choir hum] [Verse 1] She knelt by the bed when the house was still Whispered my name like a sacred will I was out there chasing everything but peace While she stayed on her knees asking for my release [Chorus] Mama’s prayer never stopped Even when I ran as far as I could go Mama’s prayer never stopped Covered me in ways I’ll never fully know Through every storm and every wrong turn I made Her words kept reaching me in quiet ways Mama’s prayer… never stopped [Verse 2] I came home broken, didn’t know what to say She just held me like I’d never been away No lecture, no “I told you so” Just love that had been waiting all along [Chorus] Mama’s prayer never stopped Even when I ran as far as I could go Mama’s prayer never stopped Covered me in ways I’ll never fully know Through every storm and every wrong turn I made Her words kept reaching me in quiet ways Mama’s prayer… never stopped [Bridge] Some battles are won in rooms we’ll never see By hands that fold when the world is fast asleep I owe my second chances to a love that stayed And a voice that kept on calling out my name [Final Chorus] Mama’s prayer never stopped Even when I ran as far as I could go Mama’s prayer never stopped Covered me in ways I’ll never fully know Through every storm and every wrong turn I made Her words kept reaching me in quiet ways Mama’s prayer… never stopped [Outro] (Never stopped…) (Mama’s prayer…)
