Brian McKnight - My Prayer lyrics

Counting the times until today

So long I have wanted a chance

When I could spend some time with you

Just with you

You are growing so very fast

And I know I'm always the very last

To help you with a problem

To kiss your hurt if you should happen to fall down

Fall down

But when I'm gone

I need you here to carry on

My son, I know you will be strong

Like a burning flame, you're my claim

That's why you've got my name

And just to show

Come what may I love you so

And there will come a day

When all that's mine is yours

To take good care of you and yours, I swear

And this is my prayer

Oh Lord, this is my prayer
