Patty Loveless - Daniel Prayed lyrics

(Ralph Stanley)

I read about a man one day

He wasted not his time away

He prayed to God

Every morning noon and night

He cared not for the things avail

But trusted one who never fails

Oh, Daniel prayed

Each morning, noon and night

Oh Daniel served his living God

While upon the earth he trod

He prayed to God each morning, noon and night

He cared not for the king's decrees

But trusted God to set him free

Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night

They locked him in the lions den

Because he could not honor men

But he prayed to God

Every morning, noon and night

The jaws were locked, it made him shout

And god soon brought him safely out

Oh Daniel prayed

Every morning, noon and night

Oh Daniel served his living God

While upon the earth he trod

He prayed to God each morning, noon and night

He cared not for the king's decrees

But trusted God to set him free

Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night

Now brother let us watch and pray

Like Daniel did from day to day

He prayed to God

Every morning, noon and night

We too can gladly dare and do

And pray to God he'll see us through

Oh, Daniel prayed

Every morning, noon and night

Oh Daniel served his living God

While upon the earth he trod

He prayed to God each morning, noon and night

He cared not for the king's decrees

But trusted God to set him free

Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night
