Somebody Was Prayin' For Me

(album: How Sweet The Sound: 25 Favorite Hymns And Gospel Greats - 2002)

Well the path to destruction's like an interstate highway
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)
And like so many people I took it for my way
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me]
Well it's wide and it's smooth and it's easy to travel
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)
And then all of a sudden my life came unraveled
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)

Somebody (somebody) somewhere (somewhere)
Somebody held me up in prayer
Cause I was so far down I had to reach up to touch the ground
Jesus said if you believe (if you believe) just ask and you shall receive
(Somebody was down on their knees somebody was praying for me)
Praying for me
(Somebody was down on their knees somebody was praying for me)

I was on the wrong track like a runaway freight train
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)
I was a rocking and a rolling my way down the fast lane
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)
Any port in a storm any pleasure that pleases
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)
I ran into a brick wall and his name was Jesus
(Somebody somewhere was praying for me)

Somebody (somebody) somewhere (somewhere)
Somebody must have really cared
I was lost and I was so alone that I couldn't find my way back home
I was standing on the sinking sand (sinking sand)
Then he reached down his merciful hand
(Somebody was down on their knees somebody was praying for me)

Somebody (somebody) somewhere (somewhere)...
