C F G C
I brushed some pine needles off of memories today
C F G C G/B
My fingers traced a stone etched with a date and a name
Am G F Em
Of simple country lady so gentle yet so strong
Dm7 G
Her mem?ry floods my heart as I recall
C F G C
She didn?t have a lot but there was something that she knew
C F G C G/B
And it meant the world when she would say son I?ll pray for you
Am G F Em
And whenever she would kneel beside her little rocking chair
Dm7 G
She?d turn her simple home into a holy house of prayer
F Em
And though she?s gone away
F G E/G# Am Am/G D/F# F G
There?s something that I really want to say
C F C G C
Thank you for praying, praying for me
C F C G C
I never could repay the time you spent down on your knees
F Em
I?m where I am today
F G E/G# Am Am/G D/F#
Because you chose to pray and intercede
F G
Thank you for praying, praying for me
Dm7 G7 Am G/B C G/B Am G F G
C F G C
Everyone has someone in your life you can recall
C F G C G/B
A constant source of strength for you whenever you would fall
Am G F Em
And when you felt so lonely in times of desperate need
Dm7 G
You knew that you could count on them to be down on their knees
F Em
To our heroes of the faith

There?s something that we all would love to say

I?m where I am today
F G E/G# Am Am/G D/F#
Because you chose to pray and intercede
F G
Thank you for praying
F
And when that day comes and all things will be revealed
Am G
And our Father lets us see with open eyes
F
We will understand that we were carried on the wings
Dm7 G
Of the prayers of faithful people in our lives
