Mahalia Jackson - Prayer Changes Things lyrics

I've heard the story of David And I've heard of Daniel inside the lion's din Yes, I've heard of Job and his afflictions, oh Lord How they all kept the faith right til the end, yes til the end But when all hope, Lord, have seemed to fail That's when my God, yes, His power prevails One thing I know, yes I really know Prayer changes things Lord, it changes things Yeah, do you know Prayer changes things Do you know God, child Prayer changes things I've been out on the stormy raging sea Lord, liftin' (me) Yeah, I been hungry I've been sick I've been filled with misery But, along came Jesus I'll tell the world God rescued me One thing I know, yes I know Prayer changes things, God knows Umm, you know prayer gives you strength when you're fallin, hmmm... And it'll unlock doors that been closed so long in your face Oh and it will raise a friend when you feel friendless, my Lord And it will drive all your doubts and fears away, oh Lord Yes, the world may crush you, but you don't have to fret My God remembers when others forget, yes one thing I know Yes, I surely know, prayer changes things Hey, do you know prayer, prayer changes things Child I've tried God and I know prayer changes things I've been out on the stormy, Lord Lord, raging sea Lord, liftin' (me) Yeah, I been hungry I've been sick I've been filled with misery But, along came Jesus I'll tell the world God rescued me One thing I know, yes Prayer ew, eww, eww Prayer changes things
