Staple Singers, The - Pray On Lyrics






Pray on my child
(Pray on my child)
I got a home on high
(Yes, I got a home on high)

You know I've talked about
(You as you born)
I need Jesus
(Jesus to carry me on)

Oh, if I never
(Never did)
Wander where, where you meet
(Meet me on the other shore)

Pray on
(Pray on my child)
Oh yeah
(Pray on my child)
I got a home on high
(Yes, I got a home on high)

Pray on my child
(Pray on my child)
I got a home on high
(Yes, I got a home on high)

You know I've talked about
(You as you born)
And I need Jesus
(Jesus to carry me on)

Oh, if I never
(Never see your smiling face)
I wanna be saved
(Saved by my own grave)

Pray on
(Pray on my child)
Oh yeah
(Pray on my child)
I got a home on high
(yes, I got a home on high)

I remember the day, remember it well
(Pray on, just pray on)
When you saved my soul from burning hell
(Pray on, you just pray on)

You can talk about me as much as you believe
(Pray on, and just pray on)
But the more you talk the more I'm gonna bend my knee
(Pray on, and just pray on)

Pray on my child
(Pray on my child)
I got a home on high
(Yes, I got a home on high)

You know I've talked about
(You as you born)
I need Jesus
(Jesus to carry me on)

Oh, if I never
(Never did)
Wander where where you meet
(Meet me on the other shore)

Pray on
(Pray on my child)
Pray on
(Pray on my child)
Pray on
(Pray on my child)

    talking about this pray on song.

  5. q.... c....

    if this song won't get you up on your feet, stupping your feet and clapping your hands, you got to be deaf or lame.

  6. D.... B....

    First gospel song I loved as a kid love the Staple Singers Sing! Mavis!

  7. J.... R....

    I love the staple singers! Mavis can eat this song up! I like this version better because of the curves in the background vocals and the rhythm of the overall song.

  8. B.... L....

    i like pray by the staple singers but but this version is different than than i have of them. i like their singing thou.

    B.... L....

    There's a great version that's much earlier than this one - '50s for sure, when they were doing a lot of gospel.
