Lyrics:
(I say a little prayer for you)
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup (Makeup)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
And while I'm combing my hair now
And wondering what dress to wear now (Wear now)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
(Forever) Forever, (And ever) yeah
(You'll stay in my heart and I will love you)
(Forever) Forever, (And ever) ever
(We never will part, oh, how I love you)
(Together) Together, (Together) together
(That's how it must be to live without you)
(Would only mean heartbreak for me)
I run for the bus, dear
But while riding I think of us, dear (Us, dear)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
And at work I just take time
And all through my coffee break time (Break time)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
(Forever) Forever, (Ever) Ever
(You'll stay in my heart and I will love you)
(Forever) Forever, (Ever) Ever
(We never will part, oh, how I love you)
(Together) Together, (Together) together
(That's how it must be to live without you)
(Would only mean heartbreak for me)
Nobody but me
(Forever) Forever, (Ever) ever
(You'll stay in my heart and I will love you)
(Forever) Forever, (Ever) ever
(We never will part, oh, how I love you)
(Together) Together, (together) together
(That's how it must be to live without you)
(Would only mean heartbreak for me)
My darling, believe me (Believe me)
For me, there is no one but you
Please love me too
I'm in love with you (Answer my prayer)
Answer my prayer, baby (Answer my prayer)
Say you'll love me too (Answer my prayer)
Answer my prayer, baby (Answer my prayer)
And (Forever) Forever, (And ever) ever
(You'll stay in my heart and I will love you) Ever
(Forever) Forever, (And ever) ever
(We never will part, oh, how I love you)
(Together) Together, (Together) together
(That's how it must be to live without you)
(Would only mean heartbreak for me)
For nobody but me
My darling, believe me (Believe me)
For me, there is no one but you
Please love me too
This is my prayer (Answer my prayer, baby)
Answer my prayer now, baby (Answer my prayer, baby)
This is my prayer (Answer my prayer, baby)
Answer it right now, baby (Answer my prayer, baby)
Say you'll love me too (Answer my prayer, baby)
This is my prayer, baby (Answer my prayer, baby)
I'm in love with you (Answer my prayer)
*******************
An icon of 20th and 21st century music, the voice of the civil rights movement, and the undisputed Queen of Soul-there is only one Aretha Franklin. In her incredible six-decade career, Aretha evolved from teenage gospel star to reigning pop and R&B diva, recording classics like “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “Chain Of Fools”, “Think” (lyrics by Aretha Franklin), definitive versions of the songs “Respect” and “I Say a Little Prayer”, and global hits like “Freeway Of Love,” “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”, and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”
Altogether, 112 of her singles reached the charts, with 20 No. 1 R&B singles, the most ever by a female artist. She won 18 Grammy Awards (including the first eight trophies for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance) and, out of recognition for her for indelible contribution to American music and culture, received both the Presidential Medal Of Freedom and a Pulitzer Prize.

When my wife listened to this song she smiled and sang along. It was the last time I saw her really happy. A couple of days ago she suddenly died. We were together for 36 years. This song will always remind me of her last smile.
She’s still around you! Live the life she wants you to live, to the fullest! For her.💕
Sincere condolences for you 🙏🏽🌟💫she is with you in spirit now ❤️
My heartfelt condolences to you and your entire family! God bless all of you and may God give you all strength. Thirty-six years is full of beautiful memories and I hope you relive all of them over and over again.
I´m sorry for the loss of your wife that must be very hard. Music can definitely help you heal though.
Hugs 🤗🤗 to you
Who is still loving and singing this beautiful song in 2024 🙏🕊️❤️🙌

"The Longing of a Dafa Follower
Leaving behind the land of China, I’m exiled in the West
Longing for my homeland
And thinking of the lady whom I love
Most people are Gods descended to the world
Waiting for the Creator to save them back to heaven
Modern notions and conduct are deceitful tricks of demons
Atheism and evolutionary theory are fanciful lies
To spread this truth widely
I am persecuted, displaced to foreign lands
2018, Summer
***
For You and All Beings
Wonderful times kept only in my memory
Warm breezes of love through so many days and nights
Persecution brings everything back to the first wish
Oppression makes you worry for me, tormented and restless
Most people are Gods descended to the world to await the Creator
Atheism and evolutionary theory are deceiving people
Modern notions and conduct are dead ends with no way out
The meaning of life is to return to heaven
To tell the truth to all beings
To keep you away from troubles
Wonderful times kept only in my memory

The Love of a Dafa Disciple
Returning to where we started-what other choice have I
Persecution is ongoing, I wish not to bring trouble to you
Let us part, so you will not be hurt
For I want to tell people where life’s meaning lies
Most people are Gods incarnate, awaiting the Creator
Atheism and evolutionary theory are destroying mankind
Modern notions and conduct are errors in life
For the salvation of you and the world’s people
I want to spread the truth all over China and beyond
December 23, 2018
***
No Other Choice
I met you on the journey of life
Love seeded in our hearts
Yet I am persecuted; to not bring you trouble
I left, for I had no other choice
Most people of the world are Gods incarnate
Awaiting the Creator’s salvation
Atheism and evolution are false doctrines
Modern notions and conduct are harming us
To spread this important message
I am persecuted, so we have to part
When the red tide falls, you and I shall meet again

My song for him when we dated. When we married. When he passed away...40 years later. When, 10 years on, he remains lovingly remembered. 💕💕💕
So beautiful.
@Alexej Svirid can't get your hours up by knocking on doors so you harass grieving people in the comments sections?
@Alexej Svirid can’t you not just listen to the bloody song rather than preach, if Jesus will solve all our problems why has my nan got dementia and looking after her is killing my gran the same gran who has had breast cancer stage 3, who worked for many years in a weary physical job with poly myagria rheumatica, arthritis, 2 knee replacements one of which is bodged. I don’t see the power of prayer easing her pain or Jesus. I still see her (the strongest person I know) break down in tears.
My exact words to the Jehovah that came to my door when my papa died, fuck off I’ve got no time for slimy wee gits who push their religion onto others and who think power of prayer cures cancer and pays bills and stops mass muerderes from murdering and politicians from fucking us over.
god bless your soul

Today April 22, 2024... Im listening to this great song sung by the Queen of Soul: Aretha Franklin...
May she rest in peace.
🙏🏼🙏🏼
Top fav female African American singer. 2. Dionne Warwick 3. Dianna Ross.
Most men these day will never experience love like this, I`m lucky, I`ve been married for forty years. God bless you Aretha!
Most men today can't give love like this. Sad times.
damn, that one hit me hard, but I am afraid that you are right
Bullshit
Love is always, it depends on us to see.
Why do you claim this?
@@ritagrimanis6539 my parents were married for 65 years - right up until last august when our house burned down & we lost her. She was bedridden. i was on 2nd story & heard my dad outside calling out for help. This like other worldly anguished PRIMAL SCREAM was coming out of MY DAD. i still can’t think ab it. So i had to bust out a window to jump & my 86 YEAR OLD POP CAUGHT ME! .. sorry digressing. So before all this happened, my dad was my mom’s primary caregiver - per her request. After i taught him how to change an occupied bed he never looked back! Plus he ran the house! HE WORSHIPPED HER. He LITERALLY did everything humanly possible for her until he couldn’t. Ps NO ONE could get back in that house but he will never ever forgive himself for not being able to save her.💔 i am _positive_ that he is the last of his kind.😢 TY for allowing me to
share - sorry. 🤟🏻🕊️
Don’t worry. You’re not the only one who is listening to this masterpiece in 2022.
I say a little prayer for you..
Sweet Memories. Aretha Franklin's voice without instruments is awesome as well.
Yes! Oldies but goodies. Aretha Franklin songs are songs 🎵 to be cherished.

Oh mate, this is so sad. Losing a loved one to suicide is so tough as you are always thinking, could you have done something to prevent it. Take good care of yourself
Rest in peace
So sorry
sorry for your loss. may peace be on his soul🌹🕯️🪽
I am sorry, been through the same when my closest friend. Well let me say that sometimes giving your all Isn’t enough. It does remind me to never miss an opportunity to tell those close to me how important they are to me.
Rest in power home girl 🙏

25 March 1942 ~
16 August 2018⚘
Every morning I take my wife her cup of coffee while she is still in bed. This morning she started singing this song while I gave her, her coffee kiss. I had not heard this song in many many years. I didn’t even know the words to it, but I did remember the tune because my mom played it on her console record player. I just told my DianaBaby, I got to learn that song. As soon as I left the bedroom, I looked it up, listen to it, read the lyrics and some of the comments and it touched my whole being. So here I am now, All I could think of was of how much I love her and everything that “Little Prayer” has done to my life. My love for you is the greatest Love of All, and i will also say A “Littel Prayer” for you, Dear God, let us continue to love one another For Ever and Ever. Amen
I appreciate you every single day. The smallest of details never go unnoticed. My BB there's no one else for me. Forever and ever, again and again only with you. This is my prayer 🙏❤️🙏😍😘
bless you both!!!
amen🦋✨🤍
That’s wonderful keep it up. She’s one lucky woman just as you are one lucky man. 😍
Happy for you two
My granny is 75 and this is her favorite song. She played it so much, helping raising me 🥺
What a special Grandma. Blessed you are
My grandmother raised me too. We are lucky.
Excellent 😆👍
And R E S P E C T.............
The Queen of Soul is this Grandma's very favorite too! ❤
"How pure, how sweet, the love Aretha that you would pray for him" is a reference to this masterpiece 😭
My mother passed away last August. I was 20 when she died. This song by Aretha Franklin was one of my late mothers' favourite songs and it was played at the funeral. R.I.P
Her voice directly hit my soul, every emotion.
I'm asian and i love this song. Thats how good it is.
@@sklim4081 No difference between asian and others. Aretha is just Aretha and for everybody with love! Thanks
Loving you by minnie ripton is another favorite of mine
@@sklim4081 Music is the language of the soul
Yes !!!!
Aretha's voice is the most beautiful I've ever heard. Listening to her is better than any anti-depressant money could ever buy. I remember the day she left this world, I said to myself she'll never be dead as long as I can hear her voice.
You're gonna live forever Aretha. God bless her memory forever.
Amen to that Bro. That spiritual voice will forever live on. Love You Aretha.
Wonderful Song

I was born in the 80's in Mexico, and thanks to my dad I grew up with this music, and also listening music from the big bands, and also led zeppelin, the beatles, Queen, Rod Stewart, Erick Clapton... I DO REALLY LOVE THIS MUSIC...
Anyone else still listening 2023? 💕 this so much & taken on more meaning as think only here due to Grace of God. Running for the bus & work break times… now a lot of praying & repenting 🙏💕💐😇
Me too
I miss those old times 😢😢😢😢🎉🎉🎉❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

If you wake up in the middle of the night with this song going through your head over and over: it can't be bad, I believe angels sent it to remind you that love's still around... ❤❤❤
This song popped up along with the photographs of my mom out of nowhere, who just passed away in November 2023. I’m balling right now! The love of my life!!!
My mother passed one month and two days ago. Very suddenly at the end of her fifties. As a child she always played this song for me and sang along with it, especially in the car to school or for outings. She was incredible. I am sorry that you also know this pain. She was also the love of my life and I of hers, and she always made sure to tell me that. People in your family can be that - it does not have to be a romantic thing at all and not enough folks understand that.
This is one of my mothers favorite songs.. she passed in May 2018, from time to time I would play this in moments of missing her. She came to me in a dream and told me things that’s brought me joy, she ended it with oh yeah! Keep playing that Aretha. I love it❤️ in tears!❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽 Happy tears
My mom died on Christmas I know the feeling
@@michaelgaither8557 I’m very sorry for your loss..🙏🏽🙏🏽 Wow, on Christmas🥹 I don’t even celebrate Mothers Day anymore.. I’m praying for you♥️🙏🏽

What a wonderful post. I lost my mom a couple years ago too. Thanks for sharing this ❤
@@gregoryschmidt360 Thank you Gregory, I’m very sorry for your loss🙏🏽
Aretha doesn't even try to top the original. She simply makes it her own. What a gift!
That's a good thing...because the original CANNOT be topped!
@macbravery I heard Bacharach interviewed from sometime in the 2000's. When asked about I Say a Little Prayer and the two recordings, he said, "we made a very good record with Dionne, but Aretha's was better ".
Agree with him or not, I call it a tie.
I prefer Dionne Warwick's humble version, but Aretha does her thing, nonetheless

Arethas voice is just natural
To my wife, still new to our life, just a couple years in ,to this adventure we've been. i can say as a man that don't really pray, i still thank the gods for her love every day.
Ok you found me here in 2023. Don’t be shy we both have a great music taste.
Imagine having someone who prayed for you like this all throughout the day. We need to start praying for each other like this every day. Such a good woman and wholesome song.
Effectivement
There are people that pray like that..hard to find..if by chance you find one.
Please know that GOD SENT THEM.PRAYER IS YOUR COVERING FROM SOMEONE WHO CARES ABOUT YOU !!
Amen 🙏

God bless 🙌
We put this masterpiece at my mom’s funeral. It was her favorite. A big hug for you ❤
M A R A V I L H O S A A A !!!❤
I prayed to The LORD to ALLOW me to fall in love for just once in my lifetime and even if I ended up broken hearted I I would NEVER ask for a second love (HE ANSWERED my prayer and I fellt like the one Aretha is singing about)
5.30 am January 2023 sat in my kitchen listening to this, still remembering my first husband. broke up in 1979 we should have tried harder. Even after all this time I still cant let go ❤️
Ouch!
you look 12
May you find peace in prayer 🙏. You're not the only one.
Without wishing to take anything away from the fantastic Dionne Warwick, this has to be one of the greatest covers of all time. A lot of people don't even know this isn't the original... it .has become the definitive version.
I don't know why I chose this song to sing for my sister's 50th vow renewal...I cant get through it without crying. It reminds me so much of our deceased parents ❤
QUEEN OF SOUL 👑
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
When Hal David wrote this amazing song, it was meant to represent the thoughts of an American woman who's man was away fighting in Vietnam. Makes perfect sense when I look at it this way. What a tribute.
Knowing that gives this song a different meaning, and also gives a different perspective of what people went through here in the states during the war. The same with the Glen Campbell song "Galveston".
Last train to clarksville. By the monkeys is also a veitnam song , who's meaning is revealed , when you know that.Its not obvious.
I pray anyone listening to this receives everything they desire and deserve in Jesus name Amen. ♥️🙏☝️👑
Praise The Lord ❤🙌
🙏🏽 Amen!
I don't believe in god
But thank you for being so kind and thoughtful
@@kennth6594 God is real and waiting for you . we all sin . we all make mistakes . but He is full of forgiveness . love and true peace . Please, turn to The Lord Jesus Christ accept Him as your Lord and Savior . By The Grace of God we are given eternal life by our faith in His only Begotten Son Jesus Christ
@@jessicabelievejesusislord5207 With all due respect, if God is full of forgiveness and I live my life according to his principles of kindness and love toward my fellow humans, without taking into account the mistakes I'll do along the way, as we all do, isn't it fair to assume that he will find the strength to forgive me?
Please don't see this as an attack or a critic. I know religion is delicate subject and I personally respect everybody's approach on the matter. It is a genuine question from someone who has a lot of them :)
Wish you all the best.

I listen to this song almost every day. But live performances are my favourite! I've never been exposed to Afro-american music as a child because I'm from a different country but I felt an instant connection when I heard this kind of music.

It's called SOUL Music,, which is deep with end
@@bangtanne894 I don't understand what ethnicity has to do with what please , and pleasures the ❤️, body mind and soul. I know for a fact that music is universal soothing souls, eargasm, weather is Gospel making a joyful noise unto the Lord, Or sometimes rap making a conscious connection to its youthful cultures. Being exposed to all different types of music is an open book to a healthy mindset. Why would you limit your social scope musically? Unhealthy in this day and age. Ijs.

It sounds effortless but so, so powerful. I've never heard anybody sing like that. It just goes straight to the core. Whatever it is.
"For me there is ooonnnnne but youuuuuu" still for me the greatest phrasing in music EVER.... it hits EVERY time.

I met her up close around 1981 at Radio City. She was so genuine that she didn't have to say a word, it exuded form her. If she came to your home for dinner and you lived in a hut, you could not stop her from cooking the meal and doing the dishes.

Amazing! We were blessed with so many amazing black female voices. True music royalty. One can never forget the graceful Etta James 😊
Love this song! Exactly a week ago I tried to commit suicide and God said “ I’m not done with you yet” I was in the hospital for 2 days and later sent to a mental hospital for 2 more days where all they wanted to do was drug me with psych medication and I refused! My God is stronger than any, anxiety, depression, medication! I thought I was falling apart and wanted to end everything, All along all I really needed was God. Even though it’s hard still I’m holding onto God Promises! Because he loved me when I couldn’t love my self! He gave me a second chance
Stay Strong 💪🏼
I hope you remember why the song was so powerful. That is the euphoria that God also gives us. If you ever need a boost of feel-good brain chemistry, play your
favorite music.
You are worth more than you'll ever know despite your circumstances.You have already overcome.Stay strong ❤
Praise God for second chances!!! Keep holding on to God's promises. God bless you 🙏🏾
I just love that Aretha leaves so much room for the "background" vocals and takes herself back; because this is a song for us all and that's the way it is arranged.
She is the best most wonderful singer, with true soul...I simply loved her and still do forever ...an Angel now in a lovely heaven with her in it!!! Thank you Aretha thank you...❤ Ena
Let’s face it, this song composed by Burt Bacharach and sung by the Queen of Soul, Miss Aretha Franklin, is a solid song filled with memories for a lot of us. Lost my wife, Carol Anne, and daughter Wende Marlene in 1985. This song helps me “say a little prayer” each day. I love you girls ❤
One of the greatest songs written by one of the greatest songwriters, which was sung by one of the greatest artists. It doesn't get better than this!
🙏🥀💜🥀🙏
This was someone who could sing out the names and addresses to a telephone directory and it would still sell a millions copies, the voice of a angel soley missed.
Burt Bacharach. A vision before his time.
The piano you hear on the version by Dionne Warwick is played by Burt Bacharach...
He was very subtle, but emotionally moving. And Dionne, understanding his style so well, ran away with it!!

My mother taught me this prayer to say before bed, "Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord my soul to keep; If I should die before I wake, I pray the lord my soul to take" I pray it now for the whole world, I am very afraid for the whole world, every day, music and prayer help people heal, to touch is to know, that is the way of things
One of those rare songs that two artists knocked out of the park. Love both versions. Thanks Burt Bacharach and Hal David, Dionne and Aretha.
One of the greatest songs recorded, Complete Legend
what a powerful song... I feel overwhelmed by the emotion her voice carries and delivers. simply greatness manifestation.
I'm still enjoying this music in 2024!!!!!!!
When I was in college, playing sports, no extra money, I had my gear, my music, my books, my faith, my hustle-bility, and a big black leather Bible my Grandmother gave me. I discovered this song (and a few others), which helped me get through the rough patches all those years ago. Ms. Franklin's voice is timeless, and this track is about more than love, but realizing when others believe in you so much that they pray to the Creator to bless you, that's the blessing.
I agree with you!
This song is timeless 🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤
Aretha Franklin, the one and only Queen Of Soul! 👑
The Queen of Soul ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How are you doing today 😊
Who is listening to this perfect Aretha song in 2023
Whether or not you like a certain music genre, there are some songs everyone can appreciate...
Aretha does great justice to God in His* being a miracle worker at her singing.-
I am here to honour Mr Bacharach. May you rest in peace 🙏🏻 10/2/2023
Undoubtedly, one of the greatest singers of all time.
No doubt, there are many talented singers in this world. But Aretha Franklin stood out from the crowd because she was not only talented, this woman had a gift from God.
No wonder she was the first female inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of fame.
No wonder the Queen of England called upon her, to give a command performance.
What a CLASSIC !!!!! 🔥
Aretha Franklin ❤️
My sister just sent me a message saying she had a baby daughter and I almost started crying in the bus. Had to say a prayer ❤️
I absolutely love her version of this song.

I'm sitting here 😢 I love this song!
What a beautiful song. RIP Burt Bacharach, and Aretha.
The moment she sings the first note the hair on my arms stand up. She is so much a part of American soul/r and b.
A primeira vez que ouvir essa música foi numa playlist a bordo de um avião. Sentir algo incrível que não dá para explicar. Ouvir repetidamente umas 30 vezes naquele dia. Amo demais essa música.
Essa música é linda demais, muitas vezes arrepio ouvindo
Similar story.. I heard Sky and the Family Stone song " Everyday People" on a plane and relistened to it many times.. and many times since then
This reminds me of my beautiful sister who passed away a few yrs ago from cancer. Her beautiful daughter died at 15 while riding on a motorcycle.
So sorry. Tragic. 😢❤
It is very sad when you are 43 years old and you are alone. Then you remember the woman you loved and try to explain to yourself why you are alone. Yes, of course... I am still praying for her
Well I really hope you shall find and get her. Regards and don't lose nerve or hope.
I came from sing 2 if not sing i don't know this masterpiece ✨✨
Every time I listen to Aretha, I wonder how she was able to control her powerful voice. She truly was the Queen of Soul!
To David Paul, this is for you. I hope you know how I feel. You will always have a special place in my heart. If fate somehow brings us together, I'll be happy forever. Right now, I'm stuck. 😢
Aretha Franklin...voz inesquecível...você jamais será esquecida 💖
Vc linda a música lindissima

BRs conhecedores da boa música.
The best songwriters combine with the best singer. RIP Burt, you utter genius.
Aretha is an absolute LEGEND. Legends never die, she will live forever through her music. A century from today people will still be listening to her amazing music. I know she’s in heaven’s choir now.
