Mahalia Jackson Lyrics
"I Found The Answer"

I found the answer, I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, I've found the way
The sun is shining for me each day
I found the answer, and I learned to pray

I found the answer, I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, I've found the way
The sun is shining for me each day
I found the answer, and I learned to pray

I was weak and weary, I had gone astray
Walking in the darkness, I could not find the way
But then a light came shining to lead me from despair
All my sins forgiven, and I was free from care

I found the answer, oh, I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, I've found the way
The sun is shining, oh, for me each day
Oh, I found the answer, and I learned to pray

Keep your Bible with you, read it every day
Always count your blessings, always stop and pray
Learn to keep on believing and faith will see you through
Seek to know contentment, and it will come to you

I found the answer and I learned to pray
With faith to guide me, oh, I've found the way
The sun is shining, oh, for me each day, yes
I found the answer, and I learned to pray
