Pray For Awhile

Scott Parker, Louis Brown

[Verse 1]
I remember my mama say, "Darlin' come here"
Let's kneel down and pray
We repeated this every night
Mama knew it was true, I'd be alright
Baby pray for your family and friends
And strangers you meet on the street
Her blessings covered me for awhile
But I'm no longer a child
Now I'm old enough, wise enough
I know enough to know
Can't depend on this crazy world
No tellin' which way the winds gonna blow
When I'm alone, sometimes it's rough
And my best just ain't good enough
'Cause my best is worth nothing
Without God on my side

[Chorus]
So why don't you pray for awhile
And lay your burdens down
If you can believe it, you can receive it now
Why don't you pray for awhile
It may not be your style
But don't go missin' out on your miracle
Just because you won't bow

[Verse 2]
What you need to know when you pray
Is miracles happen every day
Blessings starring you in the face
Could also be a million miles away
There ain't nothing you can't ask
Just ask it in his name
Call out to Jesus, he frees us
From all burdens and pain

[Chorus]
So why don't you pray for awhile
And lay your burdens down
If you can believe it, you can receive it now
Why don't you pray for awhile
It may not be your style
But don't go missin' out on your miracle

[Verse 3]
Mama ain't raised no fool
That's true enough
With everything you learned up to now
You thought you knew enough
But with all you have if you're missing out
On the blessings from God
You can reach the top, you just gotta stop
And lift up your hands

[Chorus]
So why don't you pray for awhile
If you can believe it, you can receive it now
Why don't you pray for awhile
It may not be your style
So don't go, no, no, no, no, no
Come on let's pray (Just pray)
Pray for awhile (For awhile)
No more excuses, it's time to get down
So, come on let's pray
Pray for awhile
God wants to use us but he must allow
So why don't you pray for awhile, oh
Why don't you pray for awhile, oh
