Before I lay me down to rest
F
Am
I ask the Lord one small request
F
But this prayer is
G
not for me
Too many people
C
on this
Am
day
Don’t have a peaceful place to stay
A#
Let all fighting cease that your children may
F
see
peace
Wipe their
A#
F
tears of sorrow
C
away
To believe
F
in
Am
a
day
When hunger
A#
and war
C
will pass
Dm
away
To have
A#
the hope amidst
Dm
despair
That every
F
sparrow’s
counted
That you hear each cry and listen to each prayer
Let me try
Am
always to believe
F
That we can hear
Am
the hearts that grieve
Please help
A#
us not ignore
The anguished cries
Dm
of the poor
Or their
A#
pain
F
will never leave
C
To believe

in

a
day

When hunger and war

To have the

That every

Father, as you see,
Fm
I’m just a child

And there’s so much to

understand
But if Your Grace

should surround me
Then I’ll do the best I

can
I promise, I’ll

do the very best I can

in a day

each cry and listen to each

In the name of all that’s true
And we’ll see in one another
