  • I've never been one to ask for help
    If I need a mountain moved, I move it myself
    I ain't the church pew regular, twice on Sunday
    Quote you the scripture kind
    I'm far from a preacher
    But I'm a believer

    'Cause every single day, before I knew your name
    I couldn't see your face, but I prayed for you
    Every heartbreak trail when all hope failed
    On the highway to hell, I prayed for you
    I kept my faith like that old King James
    Said I'm supposed to
    It's hard to imagine, bigger than I could fathom
    I didn't know you from Adam, but I prayed for you

    For someone to love me like you do
    Graceful eyes to see me through
    A smile that steals me, a heart that heals me
    A touch that kills me too
    Baby you're perfect, I guess the good Lord heard it

    'Cause every single day, before I knew your name
    I couldn't see your face, but I prayed for you
    Every heartbreak trail when all hope failed
    On the highway to hell, I prayed for you
    I kept my faith like that old King James
    Said I'm supposed to
    It's hard to imagine, bigger than I could fathom
    I didn't know you from Adam, but I prayed for you

    Every single day, before I knew your name
    I couldn't see your face, but I prayed for you
    Every tail light fade in the goodbye rain
    Girl even today, I prayed for you
    I kept my faith like that old King James
    Said I'm supposed to
    It's hard to imagine, bigger than I could fathom
    I didn't know you from Adam, but I prayed for you
    I prayed for you
    I prayed for you Writer/s: Allison Margaret Veltz, Ashley Walton Bowers, Matthew Stell
