Daddy Doesn't Pray Anymore Lyrics

Daddy doesn't pray anymore
Guess he's finished talkin' to the Lord
He used to fold his hands
And bow his head down to the floor
Daddy doesn't pray anymore

I remember even when the times were bad
He'd thank Jesus for everything he had
A good wife and three children
The food upon our plates
Yeah, everything was right when he said grace

Daddy doesn't pray anymore
Guess he's finished talkin' to the Lord
He used to fold his hands
And bow his head down to the floor
Daddy doesn't pray anymore

There was a time when we didn't get along
'Cause I thought I was right and he was wrong
Still, when I'd lay down at night
I'd hear him get down on his knees
And say a little prayer for me

Daddy doesn't pray anymore
Guess he's finished talkin' to the Lord
He used to fold his hands
And bow his head down to the floor
Daddy doesn't pray anymore

Today, I followed Daddy down to church
Listened to the preacher read God's word
We sang his favorite hymn
Daddy didn't make a sound
And this afternoon, we'll lay him in the ground

Daddy doesn't pray anymore
Guess he's finally walkin' with the Lord
He used to fold his hands
And bow his head down to the floor
Daddy doesn't pray anymore
