《A Mother and Father’s Prayer(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] A Mother and Father's Prayer - Melissa Manchester Collin Raye

[00:00:10] I know you're listening as I lay me down to sleep

[00:00:19] It's not for me I ask but my children's souls to keep

[00:00:27] It seems the world is going crazy

[00:00:32] And though I need to do my share

[00:00:37] Could you please take them under wing

[00:00:42] Watch over them especially

[00:00:47] Keeping them safe from everything

[00:00:51] This is a mother's prayer

[00:00:59] I know you're listening in the silence of this night

[00:01:08] The news is blistering but I hold on to your light

[00:01:16] And though there's darkness all around us

[00:01:21] By my faith I know you're there

[00:01:26] Give me the strength to lead the way

[00:01:31] Send me the words I need to say

[00:01:35] Use me to guide them day by day

[00:01:40] This is a father's prayer

[00:01:47] I know I can't do this by my self

[00:01:59] I thank you for your help

[00:02:06] I know you're listening so I know I'm not alone

[00:02:16] I feel you here with me as we all face the unknown

[00:02:24] Could you return us to your garden

[00:02:28] Where no one's hurt and no one's scared

[00:02:34] Free us from pride and bitterness

[00:02:38] Keep us so close we won't forget

[00:02:43] Teach us to love as you love

[00:02:48] This is a mother's prayer

[00:02:51] This is a father's prayer

[00:02:53] Teach us to love as you love

[00:02:57] This is a mother's a father's prayer
