[Intro]
Off you go to work (off you go)
Doing your everyday business (ooh Lord)
One thing Chronixx a ask you (yeah)

[Chorus]
When was the last time you prayed, hmm
Give Jah thanks for health and strength
When was the last time you prayed
And God shall protect you from the pagan dem
When was the last time, could you tell me
When last you pray and go down 'pon your knee
When was the last time you prayed
When was the last time you prayed

[Verse 1]
I say fi lean not on your own understanding
Proverbs 3:5

Seek Jah when you wake in the morning
Please, I beg you please
Seek Jah first and go down 'pon your knees, ooh yeah
Matthew 6:33

You don't know what troubles lies ahead
In this cold world weh the system dread
And it's so easy to get mislead, bwoy
Rent due, light cut off, so many will say
And dem a wonder which part God deh
But when dem ask this is what I say

[Chorus]
When was the last time you prayed
Give Jah thanks for health and strength
When was the last time you prayed
A could you tell me, woii
When was the last time, could you tell me
When last you pray and go down 'pon your knee
When was the last time you prayed
When was the last time, aah

[Verse 2]
Never be ungrateful
You haffi give thanks fi everything weh you gain
No bother pree fi your brother
Big feast, beg you please
Give thanks fi the likkle inna your plate
Ease out, look out and before you push out
A you ask beg you hold a reverence
Inna the streets weh the place inna siege
Yah fi chant at least one prayer a day
Becah, aah...
You don't know what troubles lies ahead
In this old world weh the system dread
And it's so easy to get mislead, aah
And when your plan start fail, I know you will say
A you a wonder which part God deh
But when you ask this is what I say

[Outro]
When was the last time you prayed, well
Ooh, ooh
(Give Jah thanks for health and strength)
When was the last time you prayed, aah
Eh, eh
(God shall protect you from the pagan dem)
When was the last time, hey
When last you pray
When was the last time, last time
Well, oh, well
Good Lord
And could you tell me, well, aah
A could you tell me, woii
Tell me, bwoy
A could you tell me, hey
A could you tell me, bwoy
