Verse 1
You Know As I Was Praying, Three Full Weeks I Mourned
The First Few Days Were Normal; I Did Not Know What Was In Store
The Devils Gathered 'Round Me, Said, "Ole Daniel, Where's Your Lord?"
I Said, "He's Not Come By Here Yet, So I'll Just Pray Some More."
Chorus
And I Kept On Prayin', I Kept On Praying, I Prayed Three Times A Day Unto The Lord.
Verse 2
Ten Days Passed Away, The Devil Laughed At Me
He Said, “Now Daniel, There’s No God, So Why Not Worship Me?”
Well, I Buried My Head Much Deeper, And I Cried With All My Might
You’re Lies Will Never Work On Me, Now Get On Out Of My Sight
Chorus
And I Kept On Prayin', I Kept On Praying, I Prayed Three Times A Day Unto The Lord.
Verse 3
Fifteen Days Have Come And Gone; I’m Weak From Fasting Now
Satan Said Unto Me, “You’ve Lost Your Battle Now.”
Well, I Prayed And Wept And I Cried To God Though I Did Not Feel A Thing
I Said, “My Lord, I Know You’re Real,” And I Let Those Prayer Bells Ring
Chorus
And I Kept On Prayin', I Kept On Praying, I Prayed Three Times A Day Unto The Lord.
Verse 4
Twenty Days Have Passed Away, Still I See No Sign
Satan Said Unto Me, “Your Light Will Never Shine
Now Daniel Pray Unto Your Lord, But Your Battles Over Now.”
I Said, “Come Back Tomorrow, Devil, I’m Gonna Show You How.”
Chorus
And I Kept On Prayin', I Kept On Praying, I Prayed Three Times A Day Unto The Lord.
Verse 5
The Twenty-First Day Is Dawning, But Something’s Different Today
The Devils Were Not Present To Hinder Me When I Pray
But Behold A Hand Just Touched Me And I Heard The Good Lord Say
“Oh Daniel, My Beloved Son, I Heard You The First Day.”
Chorus
And I Kept On Prayin', I Kept On Praying, I Prayed Three Times A Day Unto The Lord.
Chorus
And I Kept On Prayin', I Kept On Praying, I Prayed Three Times A Day Unto The Lord.
