Phillips, Craig & Dean - Midnight Oil Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Mama always got up early
  • And she never went to bed 'til late
  • Yet, I never heard her complainin'
  • About her family of eight
  • There were times she should have been sleepin'
  • But, late in the midnight hour
  • She'd get down on her knees
  • And you could hear her say,
  • "Lord fill them will your power"
  • [chorus]
  • Mama like to burn the midnight oil
  • Down on her knees in prayer
  • If you asked why she did it
  • She said she did it care she cared
  • Now Mama always talked to Jesus
  • When she knelt by her rocking chair
  • Oh, I'm glad my mama was willin'
  • To burn the midnight oil in prayer
  • Now Mama's gone to be with Jesus
  • I've got a family of my own
  • Yet, whenever the clock strikes midnight
  • You will find me all alone
  • That's when I start to call upon Jesus
  • For His wisdom and His power
  • Cause it seems that He loves
  • To hear a Daddy's prayer
  • Even in the midnight hour
  • [chorus]
  • Years from now, when my grown little boy
  • Has a family of his own
  • Will he kneel down and pray
  • When the hour gets late
  • And pass the legacy on
  • [chorus]
  • Cause now there's a Daddy who's willing
  • To burn the midnight oil in prayer
