Song Description

A mother's prayer cast in the form of a lullaby.

Lyrics

When the night?s arms of darkness embrace,
And touch softly my child?s sleeping face,
Such joys abound,
In this miracle found,
I will be there,
Whispering this Mommy?s prayer.

I would wish for you fortune and fame,
But so much more in life there?s to gain,
Be gentle and kind,
And be loving and care,
These are the dreams held,
In your Mommy?s prayer.

[HUMMING BREAK]

When the world?s too much with you some day,
Close your eyes let your fears fade away,
Though words you won?t hear,
I will always be near,
You?ll find the peace child,
In your Mommy?s prayer.

I will teach you the best of my years,
And you?ll grow through the laughter and tears,
All the love I can share,
It will always be there,
You?ll find the comfort,
In your Mommy?s prayer.

[HUMMING BREAK]

Of these time?s precious memories I will hold,
And when life?s at an end when I?m old,
I?ll take such pride,
Of your goodness inside,
You?re the heartlight of your Mommy?s prayer.
