Candi Staton - Mama Lyrics
I thought you'd like to know
All those nights you paced the floor
Praying that I would make it home alright
Believing in god that he
Would someday save my soul
I thought you'd like to know
All those prayers you prayed for me
Never a-one was fell to the ground
I know sometimes it look like I was a million miles from grace
But he answered your prayers, and I thought you'd like to know
Mama, I want you to know I love you
Please forgive me for all the times I broke your heart
Every tear you cried for me, drew me closer too being free
I thought you'd like to know
That I wish I could live my life again
If I could, I would surely make amends
But if I could help my brother
A new life to discover, oh I will
And I thought you'd like to know
Oh, mama, I want you to know I love you
Please forgive me for all the times I broke your heart
Every tear you cried for me, drew me closer too being free
I want to thank you, and I thought you'd like to know
I thought you'd like to know

Good song
Lord I lost my sis the 11th of Nov.2018 and she sang this for my moma one day..I guess I can say now I understand why God called her home
This song is so beautiful worth repeating my first time listening it made me close to tears
Mama Martha.. I LUV U!💓😘..& MISS U Sooooooooo MUCH!....&.. I Thought You'd like to KNOW! He SAVED Me.😢🛐💓
Love and miss you granny. You would think after 11 years the hurt wouldnt be the same but I was sadly mistaken. Hopefully one day ill be the womn you prayed for.
Yess.. This song is everything! I love you Mama!
Love this song I played this song for my mom before I had to make one of the hardest decisions in my life. And at her funeral still brings me to tears when I listen to it
heard this song first in 2001 at mom wake ,it 2018 and it still bring tears to my eyes,Mom thanks for all your prayers,you're sadly missed continue to rest in the precious arms of Jesus..
rip mama
me and my mom and my cusins are dancing to this song for my 99 year old grand ma
Sung this with my two sisters last month at my Mama's Home-going. Use to sing it for our Mother every Mother's Day. Thought it appropriate to sing it for her one last time.
I can't stop crying!!! Although the song is dedicated to "Mama" However my Dad, loving "Papa' died before Christmas and was thousand miles away from me!! I love you so much Papa, Dad and miss you dearly!! Thanks you so much Candi for this song!!
I want to thank God for my mother. I love you mom with all my heart.
Yes. I sung this song to my mom on her 65th birthday.
Mama is always a friend to you
God Bless All Mamas
O Lord I thank you for my mother. Without her love and support I would be lost. I dont understand why someone will be mean and disrespect there mama. I give thanks to the Lord today and everyday for my mother.
Love this song
Love you Bettyann Woodside. From your first daughter
I love this song
My mom been died thirty years you will never forget her.
I love it because I love my mother.
WHEN I HEAR THIS SONG IT FILL MY HART WITH SO MUCH JOY TO KNOW WHAT WONDERFUL MOTHER I HAD
This was my cousin favorite song! He died two ago and this was his favorite song.😭 R.I.P RICO Parks!
I dreamed that Candi was in heaven. Smiling, she walked out on a balcony and waved toward her face with her hand like she was smelling a beautiful fragrance. They say in heaven the Rose of Sharon fragrance and many others is always around. AND They carry blessings from the throne of God.
do partner says do
Alex so get
This song is all about my mom she would pray a lot for me to change my life. and she didn't get to see the big change God did in my life this songs says it all. love you mon.rip. I thought you like to know.
Jesus wept for all the people death has claimed jest like he did for Lazarus , that's the love he has for all of us thank you Jesus.

I miss you mama. My heart is heavy today. I listened to this song all day today. Mama please forgive me. I love you
😢😢
May your Mom rest easy with the Lord. Grief can be tough sometimes especially when you lose someone so close to you ❤️ I had a terrible time with losing my Mom too. When she was alive she was always there for me. After she'd moved on I had and still have a hard time forgiving myself for all the stupid stuff I did when she was here. I was at a really hard place in my life then and did many things I wish I could take back. Today I'm doing much better. I still have a hard time with forgiving myself and feeling like I don't deserve forgiveness. It's absolutely nonsense. She's already forgiven me and I'm positive that your Mom has forgiven you. When I was in that really dark place after she passed I ran into a man of the cloth. He said " Do u believe in God David and I replied "yes". Then he said, " Do you believe God has forgiven you" ? I said "yes." He looked at me real serious, paused for a moment and said, "Then who are you to not be able to forgive yourself ? "Are you better than God" ? It hit me really hard and then I shed some tears. At that point it dawned on me that I was slowly destroying myself and now I could stop. No man or woman is better than the Lord. I know you don't me and I'm a total stranger. I was thinking of my Mom today and remembering the good times we had. I know now that the best way I can honor her is by living a cleaner and better life. Those are my thoughts and God put it on my heart to tell you that. Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays to you and your family. Our Mom's love us and want us to live our best life now. Peace to you always and God bless. 🙏
Thank you Mama, for your loving kindness and sincere prayers for me when I've gone through trials.
Well done, missus!!! Made my day.
i first heard this song at my moms funeral and today her bday #ripmama💔💔💔
Very good song. Makes me think about my grandmother.
Candi is a blessing to the music and singing fraternity.
I love her dearly. Thank you Jesus. My prayers tonight.
patrice cartwright 28th Aug 2016 i miss u so much😢😢😢😢 i loved u an still do. rip
Wow! My grandma was a praying woman. She would pray all hours of the night, speaking in tongues and crying. Many times she would be praying in our "Cree" language and I would hear her praying for our protection and salvation. There are many testimonies where her prayers saved our lives. This song touched my heart and brought back those beautiful eternal memories of my grandma who was my mom, praying.
Mama Elizabeth L. Prince, I thought you'd like to know, He answered your prayers!!! I love you!!! Thank you!!!
how I miss you mama life is so hard with out u. r.I.p.momma I love u and will always remember you
