Collin Raye - 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 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 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 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
