I know your listening, as I lay me down to sleep
It's not for me I ask, but my childrens 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 the safe from everything
This is a Mother's Prayer
 

I know your 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 your there
Give me the strength to lead the way,
Send me the words I need to say
Use me to guide them day by day
This is a Father's Prayer
 

I know I can't do this by myself
I thank you for your help
 

I know your listening, so I know I'm not alone
I feel your here with me, as we all face the unknown
Could you return us to your garden, where no ones hurt and no ones scared
Keep 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
Teach us to love as you love
this is a Mother's Prayer
