Like a Prayer

Written by Patrick Raymond Leonard and Madonna Ciccone

Performed by Madonna

… Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name

… And it feels like home

… When you call my name it's like a little prayer

… I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power

… Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there

… I hear your voice
It's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice

… Feels like flying

… I close my eyes
Oh God I think I'm falling

… Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

… When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power

… Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Like a child
You whisper softly to me

… You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me it's like a dream
Let the choir sing
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

… Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me

… Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

… Your voice can take me there
Like a prayer
Just like a prayer
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
