Silent prayers
That I said in the dark in the dorm room
Way back when
They been workin I know
Time again
They remind me of whose I am
And where I been
They come back like echos

And I wonder then
If You really heard me
But He answers prayer
'Cause I'm living in it
I'm living in it

Ooh
He was near
By the pillow where you buried
All your tears
Watering seeds that you sowed
Have no fear
There was a God that paid the way
'For you got here
You're a walkin' echo

If you're wonderin'
If He really listens
Well, just look around
You're living in it
You're living in it

Mama's prayers are still working
Daddy's prayers are still working
Every word that's been spoken
Look around it's still working

Look around it's still working

So mama's prayers are still working
Daddy's prayers are still working

Look around it's still working

So mama's prayers are still working
Daddy's prayers are still working
Every word that's been spoken
