The Oak Ridge Boys - Mama's Last Amen lyrics

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
