I've been too sick to pray, Lord
That's why we ain't talked in a while
It's been some of them days, Lord
I thought I was on my last mile

But I'm feelin' okay, Lord
And I'm glad that I called you today
Never needed you more
I woulda called you before
But I've been to sick to pray

Remember the family, Lord?
I know they will remember You
And all of their prayers, Lord
They talk to you just like I do

Well, I reckon that's all, Lord
That's all I can think of to say
Never needed you more
I woulda called you before
But I've been to sick to pray
