Song lyrics A Mother And Father's Prayer by Collin Raye

(Karen Taylor-Good; M. Manchester)

I know you`re listening as I lay me down to sleep
It`s not for me I ask, but my children`s souls to keep
It seems the world is going crazy
And though I need to do my share
Could you please take them under wing
Watch over them especially
Keeping them safe from everything
This is a mother`s prayer

I know you`re listening in the silence of this night
The news is blistering but I hold on to your light
And though there`s darkness all around us
By my faith I know you`re there
Give me the strength to lead the way
Send me the words I need to say
Use me to guide them day to day
This is a father`s prayer

I know I can`t do this by myself
I thank you for your help!

I know you`re listening so I know I`m not alone
I feel you here with me as we all face the unknown
Could you return us to your garden
Where no one`s hurt and no one`s scared
Free us from pride and bitterness
Keep us so close we won`t forget
Teach us to love as you love
This is a mother`s prayer
This is a father`s prayer
Teach us to love as you love
This is a mother`s, a father`s prayer
