1 Don't forget the family prayer,
Jesus would love to meet you there
When you gather at the evening
Don't forget the family prayer.

2 Prayer will keep your home together,
Bring your wandering son back home.
Prayer will make you love one another,
Prayer will keep your home in peace.

3 It is even good for your neighbor,
Who so often creeps around;
Prayer is even good for strangers,
Brings the high ones to the ground.

4 Prayer will make those who hate you, love you,
Bring them humble at your feet.
Prayer will help to conquer your enemy,
Make them happy when you meet.

5 You don't have to disturb your neighbor,
Neither the guest in your next room;
You don't have to disturb the sick ones,
You don't have to make an alarm.

6 Prayer will sail across the ocean,
Go faster than any train can go.
Prayer will even reach the borders;
Prayer will bring you to the shore.
