(Ralph Stanley)       I read about a man one day   He wasted not his time away   He prayed to God   Every morning noon and night   He cared not for the things avail   But trusted one who never fails   Oh, Daniel prayed   Each morning, noon and night      Oh Daniel served his living God   While upon the earth he trod   He prayed to God each morning, noon and night   He cared not for the king's decrees   But trusted God to set him free   Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night      They locked him in the lions den   Because he could not honor men   But he prayed to God   Every morning, noon and night   The jaws were locked, it made him shout   And god soon brought him safely out   Oh Daniel prayed   Every morning, noon and night      Oh Daniel served his living God   While upon the earth he trod   He prayed to God each morning, noon and night   He cared not for the king's decrees   But trusted God to set him free   Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night      Now brother let us watch and pray   Like Daniel did from day to day   He prayed to God   Every morning, noon and night   We too can gladly dare and do   And pray to God he'll see us through   Oh, Daniel prayed   Every morning, noon and night      Oh Daniel served his living God   While upon the earth he trod   He prayed to God each morning, noon and night   He cared not for the king's decrees   But trusted God to set him free   Oh Daniel prayed every morning, noon and night
