Daniel Prayed

(Ralph Stanley)
 I read about a man one day
 He wasted not his time away
 He prayed to God
 Every morning noon and night
 He cared not for the things avail
 But trusted one who never fails
 Oh, Daniel prayed
 Each morning, noon and night
 Oh Daniel served his living God
 While upon the earth he trod
 He prayed to God each morning, noon and night
 He cared not for the king's decrees
 But trusted God to set him free
 Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night
 They locked him in the lions den
 Because he could not honor men
 But he prayed to God
 Every morning, noon and night
 The jaws were locked, it made him shout
 And god soon brought him safely out
 Oh Daniel prayed
 Every morning, noon and night
 Oh Daniel served his living God
 While upon the earth he trod
 He prayed to God each morning, noon and night
 He cared not for the king's decrees
 But trusted God to set him free
 Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night
 Now brother let us watch and pray
 Like Daniel did from day to day
 He prayed to God
 Every morning, noon and night
 We too can gladly dare and do
 And pray to God he'll see us through
 Oh, Daniel prayed
 Every morning, noon and night
 Oh Daniel served his living God
 While upon the earth he trod
 He prayed to God each morning, noon and night
 He cared not for the king's decrees
 But trusted God to set him free
 Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night
