Mama Was A Lot Like Jesus Lyrics

I've seen her give her last dollars to a stranger on the street
And do without a dress she wantedso we would have enough to eat
When the ladies at the garden club looked down their noses at her
I watched her turn the other cheek without a bitter word

Chorus
Mama was alot like Jesus
The way she lived and loved
A blessed sent from heaven up above
She would pray for our forgiveness
And sacrifice for us
Mama was alot like Jesus

She could stretch a bag of groceries for two weeks to keep us fed
She could take an old potted plant and raise it from the dead
Her words were like a healing touch when we had a broken heart
And when I wrestled with the devil, shel led me through the dark

Repeat Chorus

I've got my Daddy's eyes, I've got my Daddy's hairJeff Bates - Mama Was A Lot Like Jesus - http://motolyrics.com/jeff-bates/mama-was-a-lot-like-jesus-lyrics.html

She would pray for our forgiveness
And sacrifice for us
Mama was alot like Jesus
My mama was alot like Jesus

I've got my Daddy's eyes, I've got my Daddy's hair
But, I hope my mama's heart is inside me somewhere

('Cause) Mama was alot like Jesus
The way she lived and loved
A blessed sent from heaven up above
She would pray for our forgiveness
And sacrifice for us
Mama was alot like Jesus
My mama was alot like Jesus
