Afraid to lift my head, I stand before You
Afraid that it's too late to be ashamed
Unworthy to be heard I call upon You
After all the times I called Your Name in vain

Oh Jesus I don't deserve Your mercy
Knowing right from wrong I chose to live with sin
But today my soul is cryin' for an answer to the prayers
That ended with my mama's last amen

She prayed that I'd be strong enough to follow You
And I promised her I would but never tried
She said Jesus if he stumbles give him faith to keep on searchin'
Oh till he finds the Tree Of Life

And Jesus let me go back to her bedside
Give me one more chance to follow You again
'Cause today my soul is cryin' for an answer to the prayers
That ended with my mama's last amen

Oh today my soul is cryin' for an answer to the prayers
That ended with sweet Mama's last amen
