A Mother's Prayer · letra

Verse 1

Before you close your eyes to sleep I have a promise still to keep As I hold you in my arms I pray your little frame grows strong and that Faith takes hold while you are young This is my prayer for you

Chorus

Hold my hand, I'll teach you the Way to go Through the joys, through the tears The journey of these years May you trust Him till the end May you trust Him in the end

Verse 2

This world is not as it should be But the Savior opens eyes to see All that's beautiful and true Oh May His light fill all you are and the jewel of wisdom crown your heart This is my prayer for you

Chorus

Hold my hand, I'll teach you the Way to go Through the joys, through the tears The journey of these years He is with us till the end He is faithful till the end

Bridge

Close your eyes, oh child of my heart My worldly joy, my trea-sure Close your eyes, oh love of my heart And you will get a gift tomorrow

Verse 3

You'll travel where my arms won't reach As the road will rise To lead your feet on a journey of your own May my mistakes not hinder you But His grace remain and guide you through This is my prayer for you

Chorus

Take His hand and go where He calls you to And whatever comes, seek Him with all your heart This will be my prayer for you Father, hear my ceaseless prayer Oh keep her in Your care
