My momma taught me Jesus, she taught me how to pray
I was taught that Jesus was behind me all the way
But I never thought I needed his help until today
So if you're behind me Jesus, please hear me when I say
You better walk a little faster Jesus, that ol devil's gainin ground
Walk a little faster Jesus, or his gonna drag me down
I can see him right behind me, everytime I look around
Please walk a little faster Jesus, or slow that devil down
Now me and that ol devil have been fightin for so long
But he keeps gettin stonger, and my strength is almost gone
So I need a little help now Jesus, cause I can't stand alone
Please walk a little faster Jesus, I'm just barely hangin on
