Mamma’s Midnight Altar Calls
Ever time I hear Rock of Ages
I think about the nights my Mamma prayed
She’d read them tear stained Holy pages
And she’d cry out to God and call my name
(Chorus)
I wouldn’t be in Moundsville Prison
Behind steel bars, and cold stone walls
If I’d just taken time to listen
To Mamma’s Midnight Altar Calls
Last Sunday in the prison chapel
I felt the power of God, call me out
And on my knees in chains and shackels
I found the grace my Mamma talked about
(Chorus)
(Chorus)
To Mamma’s Midnight Altar Calls
