Holy Father, up in Heaven (pray, pray, pray, pray, pray, pray)
Kingdom come, will be done (pray, pray, pray, pray)

Should've been long gone now, yeah
Shouldn't been living
Time after time, I chose wrong after right
I deserve what I've been getting
You think I'd learn my lesson
I've been playing with fire, get burned every time
Night after night, oh, I tried and I tried
Didn't know what I was missing

Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me

Momma on her knees at night, hoping God'll save my life
Preacher looked me in the eye saying: Son, you're gon' be alright
This ain't 'bout flesh and blood
Help me Lord, help me Lord

Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me, oh

(My preacher said)
Holy Father up in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Kingdom come, will be done
Lord, won't You help him (my daddy said)
Holy Father up in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Kingdom come, will be done
Lord, won't You help him (won't You help him)
Holy Father up in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Kingdom come, will be done
Lord, won't you help him (my brother said)
Holy Father up in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name
Kingdom come, will be done
Lord (I know that somebody's praying)

Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me (I know, I know)
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me (thank you, Lord)
Somebody's praying, praying, praying, praying for me
Somebody must be praying
