This Friday’s song is “How I Learned to Pray” by Charlie Worsham. This version of the song features Luke Combs. Worsham wrote the song with Jeremy Spillman and Ryan Tyndell, and it was first featured on his “Rubberband” album. This new version will be released on his new album “Compadres” which will be available Oct. 13. This five-track collection includes duets with Dierks Bentley, Elle King, Kip Moore, Lainey Wilson, and, of course, Luke Combs.
It wasn’t in a church with a chapter and a verse
Songwriters: Ryan Tyndell / Charlie Worsham / Jeremy Nathan Spillman
Some preacher made sure everybody heard
Or just some words somebody taught me to say
I was living like I wasn’t long for thе world
Mama always said it’d take a special girl
To get a hold of mе
But I never let one get close to me
The man upstairs must’ve heard her prayers
‘Cause I looked up, you were standin’ there
Waitin’ on me
Like you were made for me
And I knew right then and there that I’d been saved
That’s how I learned to pray
