Lyrics
Here are the lyrics to the song "If Not For Momma's Prayers" by Gravel & Grace:
[Verse 1]
There's a Bible by the window
Pages worn and thin
Coffee cup beside it
Where her day begins
She's talking to Jesus
Like an old friend does
While I was out running
From the man I was
[Pre-Chorus]
Every backroad, every wrong turn
She was the light when I let it burn
I didn't know
But she was leading me home
[Chorus]
If not for Momma's prayers
I'd still be lost out there
Some backroad ghost without a care
When the night got dark and I couldn't find my way
Heaven heard her whisper my name
Yeah, I'm standing here by grace
If not for Momma's prayers
If not for Momma's prayers
[Verse 2]
She never knew half the things I'd done
The nights I cursed the rising sun
But mercy found me on that floor
Right where her prayers knocked on the door
[Pre-Chorus]
Every backroad, every wrong turn
She was the light when I let it burn
I didn't know
But she was leading me home
[Chorus]
If not for Momma's prayers
I'd still be lost out there
Some backroad ghost without a care
When the night got dark and I couldn't find my way
Heaven heard her whispering my name
When I was running wild thinking no one cared
She was fighting battles on her knees right there
I'm standing here by grace
If not for Momma's prayers
If not for Momma's prayers
[Bridge]
Yeah, she never stopped praying
Never stopped praying
Every word she spoke hit Heaven's doors
And I swear I ain't the same no more
There's power and love that never fails
I'm living proof of the price she paid
[Chorus]
If not for Momma's prayers
I'd still be lost out there
But grace rolled in on every tear
Now I'm home, I'm whole, I'm saved
If not for Momma's prayers
I'd still be lost out there
Some backroad ghost without a care
When the night got dark and I couldn't find my way
Yeah, now I'm home, I'm whole, I'm saved
If not for Momma's prayers
[Outro]
If not for Momma's prayers
Yeah, if not for Momma's prayers
If not for Momma's prayers
If not for Momma's prayers
