I read about a man one day

He wasted not his time away

He prayed to God (He prayed to God)

Every mornin', noon and night

He cared not for the things avail

Trusted one who never fails

Oh, Daniel prayed (Oh, Daniel prayed)

Every mornin', noon and night

Oh, Daniel served a living God (Daniel served)

While upon this Earth, he trod (Earth, he trod)

(He prayed to God) He prayed to God

Every mornin', noon and night

He cared not for the King's decree (Cared not for)

But trusted God to set him free (King's decree)

(Oh, Daniel prayed) Oh, Daniel prayed

Every mornin', noon, and night

They locked him in the lion's den

Because he would not honor men

But he prayed to God (He prayed to God)

Every mornin', noon, and night

The jaws were locked, it made him shout

God soon brought him safely out

Oh, Daniel prayed (Oh, Daniel prayed)

Every mornin', noon, and night

Oh, Daniel served a living God (Daniel served)

While upon this Earth, he trod (Earth, he trod)

(He prayed to God) He prayed to God

Every mornin', noon, and night

He cared not for the King's decree (Cared not for)

But trusted God to set him free (King's decree)

(Oh, Daniel prayed) Oh, Daniel prayed

Every mornin', noon, and night

Now, brother, let us watch and pray

Like Daniel did from day to day

He prayed to God (He prayed to God)

Every mornin', noon and night

We too can gladly dare and do

And pray to God He'll see us through

Oh, Daniel prayed (Oh, Daniel prayed)

Every mornin', noon and night

Oh, Daniel served a living God (Daniel served)

While upon this Earth, he trod (Earth, he trod)

(He prayed to God) He prayed to God

Every mornin', noon and night

He cared not for the King's decree (Cared not for)

But trusted God to set him free (King's decree)

(Oh, Daniel prayed) Oh, Daniel prayed

Every mornin', noon, and night
