Bm Gbm G Bm A
D G Mama always got up early D Em And she never went to bed 'til late A Yet, I never heard her complaining G A About her family of eight Bm There were times she should have been Gbm sleeping G D But, late in the midnight hour Em She'd get down on her knees D And you could hear her say G "Lord, fill them with Your power" Bm Gbm Mama like to burn the midnight oil G A D Down on her knees in prayer Bm G If you asked her why she did it Em A She said she did it 'cause she cared D Gbm Mama knew that Jesus was waiting G D When she knelt by her rocking chair Em D Oh, I'm glad my Mama was willing G A Bm Gbm F To burn the midnight oil in prayer Bb Em Now Mama's gone to be with Jesus Ab Em I've got a family of my own Fm Bm Yet whenever the clock strikes midnight Cm Ab You will find me all alone Cm Gm That's when I start to call upon Jesus Ab Eb For His wisdom and His power Fm 'Cause it seems that He loves Eb To hear a Daddy's prayer Ab Bm Even in the midnight hour Cm Bm Mama like to burn the midnight oil Ab Bm Em Down on her knees in prayer Cm Ab If you asked her why she did it Eb Bm She said she did it 'cause she cared Eb Gb Mama knew that Jesus was waiting Ab Eb When she knelt by her rocking chair Fm Eb Oh, I'm glad my Mama was willing Ab Bb Eb To burn the midnight oil in prayer Ab Years from now
