Let Us Pray Lyrics - Black Oak Arkansas

CHORUS 

I was walkin down the road a carryin 

The load that my father had a given me 

The night before I packed and left the home 

Of my childhood, home of my birth. 

The place in the back of the store 

Where we would work 

Until the night time darkness 

Brought the end of day 

Now, Let Us Pray 

When my brother was a kid 

Well he often went and hid in the backyard 

Settin' at the feet of my father 

And my mother would appear 

Oh to sooth away the fear 

That my father had a started 

Pretty soon the trouble parted 

And while sittin' at the evenin supper table 

He'd say Now Let Us Pray! 

Oh Pray For Me Burly 

CHORUS 

Now I travel all alone 

A thinkin of the home 

That my Mom and Dad were given 

In the times they were livin' 

And the backyard swing and the happiness 

Is bringin' out a whole bunch of presents 

For the holiday 

Remember Mom and Daddy 

Are livin' and it's time now to say 

Let Us Pray 

Our Religion Is Music
