Prayer Changes Things
Deitrick Haddon · Other Songs - Deitrick Haddon
I'm tellin' you prayer, oh, prayer
Prayer, it changes things
I know that prayer, oh, prayer
It changes things, yes, it changes things
Listen y'all
There was a mother crying all night long
Because of her daughter that ran away from home
She said why should I be cryin' when I know how to pray
Surely my God will make a way
When she got down on her knees and began to talk to the Lord
She heard a knockin', a knockin' at her door
And when she answered, she said " Who could it be?"
It was her daughter sayin', "Momma, please forgive me"
I'm telling you that
Prayer, oh prayer
Prayer, it changes things, I know that prayer
Oh prayer, it changes things
Yes, it changes things
Well the doctor said, that he wouldn't make it through
So he called the family in to give them the bad news
But the family said, "No, we ain't gonna let him go
'Cause we believe in God, we believe in miracles?"
So the family joined hands and they began to pray
And called on the name that's above every name
Just a few minutes later the Doctor came runnin' in
He said, "I got good news, your brother is gonna live"
Somebody needs to do
Prayer, oh prayer
Prayer, it changes things
I know that prayer, oh, prayer
It changes things, yes, it changes things
Much prayer, much power
No prayer, no power
Get in a hurry, to get home
You need some prayin', God will deliver
[Incomprehensible]
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
It changes things
