Beautiful Alter Of Prayer Lyrics & Chords

By Buster Turner | Doyle Lawson

(G)One day in an old country (C)church house 

(G)I heard mother pray for me (D)there 

(G)she prayed for the Savior to (C)guide me 

(G)to the beautiful (D)alter of (G)prayer 



Chorus

(G)O the (C)beautiful alter of (G)prayer

I (A)heard mother pray for me (D)there

(G)she prayed for the Savior to (C)guide me

(G)to the beautiful (D)alter of (G)prayer 



She walked down the isle there toward me 

the tears then came to her eyes 

and she said son i've been praying for you 

for in fear that in sin you might die 



Now my soul has been saved by the master 

from the dark road of sin and despair 

and i'm thankful to my dear loving mother 

and the beautiful alter of prayer
