Collin Raye Lyrics
A Mother and Father's Prayer Lyrics
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 the 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 mother�s prayer
This is a father�s prayer
I know I can�t do this by my self
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 down 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
