Burford /ˈbɜrfərd/ is a small town on the River Windrush in the Cotswold hills in west Oxfordshire, England, about 18 miles (29 km) west of Oxford, 22 miles (35 km) southeast of Cheltenham and only about 2 miles (3 km) from the Gloucestershire boundary. The toponym derives from the Old English words burh meaning fortified town or hilltown and ford, the crossing of a river.
Burford Priory is a country house that stands on the site of a 13th-century Augustinian hospital. In the 1580s an Elizabethan house was built incorporating remnants of the priory hospital. It was remodelled in Jacobean style, probably after 1637, when the estate had been bought by William Lenthall, Speaker of the House of Commons in the Long Parliament. The house and later the chapel were restored for the philanthropist Emslie John Horniman, M.P., after 1912 by the architect Walter Godfrey.
From 1949 Burford Priory housed the Society of the Salutation of Our Lady, a community of Church of England nuns. In the 1980s, its numbers dwindled, so in 1987 it became a mixed community including Church of England Benedictine monks. In 2008 the community sold the property and it has now returned to being a private house.

Genres: Drama,Oh, you must pray every day
Pray every day, pray to God up above
You've got to go all the way, get down on your knees
And pray, show Him all your love
When your life is lonely and everything is wrong
And you don't know what to do
Just get down on your knees and look up to Heaven
And say a prayer or two
Oh, you must pray every day
Pray every day, pray to God up above
You've got to go all the way, get down on your knees
And pray, show Him all your love
If old Satan comes a knocking on your door
Don't let him in, he's got his eye on you
Don't be tempted my friend 'cause all he is a sin
And he'll only bring sorrow to you
Oh, you must pray every day
Pray every day, pray to God up above
You've got to go all the way, get down on your knees
