In our little one room country school
It's where I learned to pray
A church without a steeple
That's where I learned to pray.

Every Sunday morning
About the hour of ten
The door would open to our school
The preacher did walk in.

He'd smile and say good morning
How's everything today?
We'd bow our heads and close our eyes
And then he'd say let's pray.

In our little one room country school
It's where I learned to pray
Our church that had no steeple
Is no longer there today.

From Monday until Friday at school
We'd learn and play
Then back at school on Sunday
That's where I learned to pray.

--- Instrumental ---

Our clothes were clean but faded
Sometimes our feet were bare
But no one noticed anything
Except the Lord was there.

We'd come from all directions
Searching for the way
Harmonizes at school on Sunday
That's where I learned to pray.

In our little one room country school
It's where I learned to pray
Our church that had no steeple
Is no longer there today.

From Monday until Friday at school
We'd learn and play
Then back at school on Sunday
That's where I learned to pray...

oh Lord I'm so Happy that I learned to pray

1ST VERSE
ONE DAY I WAS WALKING DOWN SINS LONESOME ROAD
MY LIFE WAS ALL TROUBLED AND HEAVY MY LOAD
I'D HEARD ABOUT JESUS AND WHAT HE COULD DO
THEN I CRIED OUT FOR MERCY IT WAS THEN I PRAYED THROUGH

2ND VERSE
OFT TIMES I GROW WEARY MY BODY GETS TIRED
I'M HOMESICK FOR HEAVEN TO BE WITH MY LORD
HE'S BUILT ME A MANSION ALL SHINING AND NEW
YES I'VE STARTED FOR HEAVEN AND I MEAN TO GO THROUGH

CHORUS
OH LORD I'M SO HAPPY THAT I LEARNED TO PRAY
LORD I AM SO HAPPY PRAY HUMBLY TO PRAY
I'M HEADED FOR HEAVEN I'M WELL ON MY WAY
I'M HEADED FOR HEAVEN I'M WELL ON MY WAY
I'VE CHOSEN THE WAY WITH MY LORDS FAITHFUL FEW
I'VE CHOSEN THE WAY WITH I'LL STAY WITH THE FEW
I'VE STARTED FOR HEAVEN AND I MEAN TO GO THROUGH
I'VE STARTED FOR HEAVEN I'M GOING THROUGH

oh Lord I'm so Happy that I learned to pray
