Papa He calls me to pray 

He tells the Lord to watch over me 

Oh my Papa He can like to say

As You go away don't forget where You came from 


If You lose your way 

You can pray 

Don't be afraid don't lose faith 

You will find your help 

There will be a way 

Just remember to pray and you'll be ok 


Papa He calls everyday 

He asks me son 

I hope you're doing ok 

Oh my papa He too dey fear say I gho go astray 

Cos I walk a stranger land  

And my home is so far away  

Papa says if you lose your way 

You can pray 

Don't be afraid don't lose faith 

You will find your help 

There will be a way 

Just remember to pray and you'll be ok 


Me sef I day pray for Papa 

Make Him find more strength and grace 

And may the fiid Lord keep Him longe 

In Jesus 


If You lose your way 

You can pray 

Don't be afraid don't lose faith 

You will find your help 

There will be a way 

Just remember to pray and you'll be ok 


If You lose your way 

You can pray 

Don't be afraid don't lose faith 

You will find your help 

There will be a way 

Just remember to pray and you'll be ok
