    Lyrics
     
    Before I lay me down to rest
    I ask the Lord one small request
    I know I have all I could need
    But this prayer is not for me
    Too many people on this day
    Don't have a peaceful place to stay
    Let all fighting cease that your children may see peace
    Wipe their tears of sorrow away
    To believe in a day
    When hunger and war will pass away
    To have the hope amidst despair
    That every sparrow's counted
    That you hear each cry and listen to each prayer
    Let me try always to believe
    That we can hear the hearts that grieve
    Please help us not ignore
    The anguished cries of the poor
    Or their pain will never leave
    To believe in a day
    When hunger and war will pass away
    To have the hope amidst despair
    That every sparrow's counted
    That you hear their cries and listen to each prayer
    Father, as you see, 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
    To believe in a day
    When hunger and war will pass away
    To have the hope amidst despair
    That every sparrow's counted
    That you hear each cry and listen to each
    Prayer {Hear each cry and listen to each prayer}
    Help us do Your will Your Father
    In the name of all that's true
    And we'll see in one another
    The loving image of You
