Chorus
[G#]The Family who prays
Will [C#]never be [G#]parted
Their circle in heaven unbroken shall [D#]stand
God will say "[G#]enter, my [C#]good faithful ser[G#]vants"
[G#]The family who prays
[D#]Never shall [G#]part
VERSE
[G#]Satan has parted [C#]fathers and [G#]mothers
[G#]Filling their hearts with his envy and [D#]hate
Heading their [G#]pathways [C#]down to [G#]destruction
[G#]Leaving their children like orp[D#]hans to [G#]stray
chorus
Wars and Tornadoes are taking our loved ones
Leaving us tearful with sad aching hearts
But we shall join them over the river
For the family who prays
Never shall part
