Gonna sing you a song of James Callahan
He was a hard drinkin' gamblin' railroad man
A girl named Gracie got his wedding band
And his journey into Grace began
Now Gracie is a cryin' sayin' "Lord have mercy
James is a runnin' on the highway to hell
Lord you got to save him from his evil ways"
There's no runnin' from a woman who prays
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
James will bless the day that he saw your face
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
Comin' through from a woman who prays
Now James is a-troubled by the visions in his head
He's seein' all kinds a devils gathered round his bed
He's sayin' "Lord I'm sorry for the things I said
So sorry for the things I've done"
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
James will bless the day that he saw your face
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
Comin' through from a woman who prays
No guarantees about tomorrow
James and Gracie had their share of sorrow
The Lord He works in mysterious ways
But there's no runnin' from a woman who prays
James and Gracie lived a mighty long time
Saw five generations down the family line
Gracie left first and was followed by James
Runnin' after a woman who prays
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
James will bless the day that he saw your face
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
Comin' through from a woman who prays
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
James will bless the day that he saw your face
Grace, Grace amazing Grace
Comin' through from a woman who prays
There's no runnin' from a woman who prays
