Subject: Lyr Add: Let Me Like Elijah Pray
As sung by Pastor & Mrs. Buck Ledford, Glory Road, LFLP 24

LET ME LIKE ELIJAH PRAY

Oh, Elijah, in the long ago
Won a battle without a shield or bow
Down on his knees he went to pray
Then the God Bael refused to hear
And the people all began to fear
Lord, let me now like Elijah pray

CHORUS
Oh, Elijah prayed and it did not rain
But he prayed and prayed and he prayed again
'Til a cloud was seen up in the sky
And the mighty rain fell by and by
Lord, let me now like Elijah pray

By the hand of God he was safely led
For the ravens brought him meat and bread
Down on his knees he went to pray
But the Lord increased the oil and the meal
A widow's son for her did heal
Lord, let me now like Elijah pray

CHORUS
