Lyrics

I’ve nev er (A)been one to ask for help.

(D)If I need a moun (A)tain moved, I move it my self.

I ain’t the church pew reg u lar, (A)twice on Sun day, quote you the Scrip ture (E)kind.

I’m far from a preach er,

but I’m a be liev er.

’Cause ev ’ry sin gle (A)day, be fore I knew your name, I could n’t see your (E)face, but I prayed for you.

Ev ’ry heart break (A)trail, when all hope fell, on the high way (E)to hell, I prayed for you.

I kept my (A)faith like that old King James said I’m (E)sup posed to.

It’s (D)hard to i mag ine, (A)big ger than I could fath om.

I did n’t (F#m)know you from Ad am, but I prayed for you.

Some one (A)to love me like you do.

Grace (A)ful eyes to see me through.

A smile that steals me, (A)a heart that heals me, a (F#m)touch that kills me, (E)too.

And, ba by, you’re per fect.

I guess the good Lord heard it.

Ev ’ry sin gle (A)day, be fore I knew your name, I could n’t see your (E)face, but I prayed for you.

Ev ’ry tail light (A)fade in the good bye rain, girl, e ven (E)to day I prayed for you.

I kept my (A)faith like that old King James said I’m (E)sup posed to.

It’s (D)hard to i mag ine, (A)big ger than I could fath om.

I did n’t (F#m)know you from Ad am, but I prayed for you.

I prayed for you.

I prayed for you.
