Lyrics:

[Chorus:]
Lord, give me a praying spirit
A praying spirit

Lord, help me to say yes
Yes, yes, Lord
Yes, yes, Lord

[Verse:]
A praying spirit throughout the day
A praying spirit in every way
A praying spirit, so that I might stay
Oh Lord, I want a praying spirit
Lest I pray, oh Lord

[Chorus]
[Vamp 1:]
Lord, when I pray
Give me what to say

[Vamp 2:]
Yes, yes
Yes, yes, Lord

[Ending:]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yes, yes, Lord
[repeat as desired]

Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah,ah, ah, ah
Ah, ooh ooh
[repeat as desired]

Yes, yes, Lord
[repeat as desired]
