Lyrics:

                                                  
MAMA  STARTED  PRAYING  
(c)  Donna Aylor/ Jason Davis     Vocalist: Erin Cupp

When Jess told Mama he joined the army
I thought she’d break down and cry
She sat straight up and grabbed his hand
Stared in my brother’s brave eyes

Asked “Will they send you overseas?” 
And he shrugged “I don’t know”  
Then she pulled him close….

CHORUS
MAMA STARTED PRAYING 
WITH ALL HER MIGHT 
SHE POURED OUT HER SOUL 
AND HELD HIM TIGHT                             
ALL OF HEAVEN KNEW 
HIS HEART WAS BREAKING 
ANGELS FLEW TO HIS SIDE 
AS MAMA STARTED PRAYING 


The hospital lamps flashed over his head
As the nurses pushed him to ER 
The doctors worked fast to remove 
The shrapnel around his heart  

Climb:
Three thousand miles away Mama woke up
From a bad bad dream
Saw Jess hooked to machines

REPEAT CHORUS
(line2 change)
SHE POURED OUT HER SOUL  TIL MORNING LIGHT 


BRIDGE
Floated above his bed all night
Jess touched the white light
A voice said “Your family needs you”
He opened his eyes and he knew…..

CHORUS
MAMA STARTED PRAYING WITH ALL HER MIGHT 
SHE POURED OUT HER SOUL TIL MORNING LIGHT   
ALL OF HEAVEN KNEW HIS HEART WAS BREAKING
ANGELS FLEW TO HIS SIDE AS MAMA STARTED PRAYING 

HE WAS IN GOOD HANDS 
CUZ MAMA STARTED PRAYING
