the mighty clouds of joy - pray for me (1967) lyrics

oh lord, i was sitting down
a few days ago at the airport
and while sitting there i overheard
a mother talking with her son
oh lord, and he said “mother
i received my orders to go away to vietnam”
and she said to him, “well, son
i want you to be careful cos i’ve already lost
2 sons in vietnam.” and she said
“tell me, what am i going to do now?”
and he turned and looked at her
and this is what he said:

pray for me (pray for me)
he said, “pray, please pray for me” (pray for me)
oh my mother, he said pray for me
i heard him telling her, he said
when you bow at the altar
i heard him say please mother
please don’t forget to pray for me

he said when i was lost, oh yeah
he said i couldn’t find my way
still he told her, “i thank you mother
for praying, praying for me”
and then he looked at her, said it again
he said mother, since i’ve found jesus
he said right now, now i can say
he said “i thank the lord, i’m on my way”

pray, he said mother please (pray for me)
please pray, pray for me (pray for me)
oh mother (dear mother)
he said pray, pray for me

and then i overhead him again say this, he said
please when you bow at the altar
don’t ya, don’t ya, don’t ya
please don’t forget to pray for me, oh lordy
