The Staple Singers - Praying Time lyrics

[The Staple Singers - Praying Time lyrics]

I’ve been praying a long time
(haven’t got tired yet)
I’ve been praying a long time
(haven’t got tired yet)
I’ve been praying a long time
(haven’t got tired yet)
Too long (too long) too long (too long)
And I’m too close to my heavenly home

I’ve been suffering too long
(to stop and turn around)
I’ve been suffering too long
(to stop and turn around)
I’ve been suffering too long
(to stop and turn around)
Too long (too long) too long (too long)
And I’m too close to my heavenly home

I’m gonna wait till (my change comes)
Storms may rise
(winds may blow) 
Till I can see


Jesus (standing on the other shore)
Too long (too long) too long (too long)
And I’m too close to my heavenly home

Well you don’t have to worry
(you don’t have to fret)
I know Jesus sure will remember
(he won’t forget)
(Ooh when I was hungry) he fed me
(When I was hungry) he clothed me
(In prison) he came to visit me
(When I was thirsty) you know
He gave me drink

He said you make one step (and I’ll make two)
Trust him, my lord
(and I will see you through)
And there’ll be joy (joy) joy (joy)
Joy (joy) joy (joy) joy (joy) joy (joy)

You know that I’m not tired
And I’m just too close
(to stop and turn around)
