A Prayer Lyrics

As we lay you down to sleep

I pray the Lord your soul to keep

And to guard you through the night

Lifting you to dawning light

As the stars fade from the sky

I watch the moon begin to fly

I hear your voice inside my head

As you drift upon your bed

I hear the thunder in the rain

I feel the beauty in the pain

I ride the storm through the abyss

With a prayer I leave my kiss

As we say our goodbyes

Wiping the stains from our eyes

I smile to greet the darkness

My peace shadows my distress

I hear the thunder in the rain

I feel the beauty in the pain

I ride the storm through the abyss

With a prayer I leave my kiss

I hear the thunder in the rain

I feel the beauty in the pain

I ride the storm through the abyss

With a prayer I leave my kiss

And if I die before, before I awake

And if I pray the Lord, my Soul to take

And if I die before, before I awake

And if I pray the Lord, my Soul to take

I hear the thunder in the rain

I feel the beauty in the pain

I ride the storm through the abyss

With a prayer I leave my kiss

I hear the thunder in the rain

I feel the beauty in the pain

I ride the storm through the abyss

With a prayer I leave my kiss
