Beautiful Alter Of Prayer

Song Author Doyle Lawson Performer: Doyle Lawson Submitted by: Anonymous

[G]One day in an old country [C]church house

[G]I heard mother pray for me [D7]there

[G]She prayed for the Savior to [C]guide me

[G]To the beautiful [D7]altar of [G]prayer

She walked down the aisle there [C]toward me

[G]The tears then came to her [D7]eyes

[G]She said son I´ve been praying [C]for you

[G]For fear that in [D7]sin you might [G]die

Oh the [C]beautiful altar of [G]prayer

I [A7]know mother prayed for me [D7]there

[G]She prayed for the Savior to [C]guide me

[G]To the beautiful [D7]altar of [G]prayer

My soul has been saved by the [C]Master

[G]On the dark road of sin and des[D7]pair

[G]And I´m thankful to my dear loving [C]mother

[G]And the beautiful [D7]altar of [G]prayer

Oh the [C]beautiful altar of [G]prayer

I [A7]know mother prayed for me [D7]there

[G]She prayed for the Savior to [C]guide me

[G]To the beautiful [D7]altar of [G]prayer

She prayed for the Savior to [C]guide me

[G]To the beautiful [D7]altar of [G]prayer

One day in an old country church house
I heard mother pray for me there
She prayed for the Savior to guide me
To the beautiful altar of prayer

She walked down the aisle there toward me
The tears then came to her eyes
She said son I´ve been praying for you
For fear that in sin you might die

Oh the beautiful altar of prayer
I know mother prayed for me there
She prayed for the Savior to guide me
To the beautiful altar of prayer

My soul has been saved by the Master
On the dark road of sin and despair
And I´m thankful to my dear loving mother
And the beautiful altar of prayer

Oh the beautiful altar of prayer
I know mother prayed for me there
She prayed for the Savior to guide me
To the beautiful altar of prayer

She prayed for the Savior to guide me
To the beautiful altar of prayer
