Lyrics of Like a Prayer by Madonna

intro

Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

chorus

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

verse

I hear your voice
It's like an angel sighin'
I have no choice
I hear your voice
Feels like flying

verse

I close my eyes
Oh God I think I'm fallin'
Out of the sky
I close my eyes
Heaven help me

chorus

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

verse

Like a child
You whisper softly to me
You're in control
Just like a child
Now I'm dancing

verse

It's like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me
It's like a dream
Let the choir sing

chorus

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

chorus

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 a power
Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there

verse

Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home

chorus

Just like a prayer (oh-oh), your voice can take me there (oh-oh)
Just like a muse to me (oh-oh), you are a mystery (oh-oh)
Just like a dream (oh-oh), 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 prayer)

Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there

outro

Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there (just like a prayer)

(Your voice can take me there)
(Just like a prayer)
