Lyrics
A LITTLE PRAYER
copyright © John A Read 2002
My soul is weary,
I'm going home.
I've been away too long,
From where my heart belongs.
We've been blessed with lives to share,
Now it's time to part.
Think of me when I am gone.
I'll be with you in your heart.
When I'm home in all my glory.
Will you say a little prayer for me.
Guide my footsteps on their journey,
Say a little prayer for me.
Say a little prayer for me.
Keep my memory safe from harm.
I did the best I could.
Think of me when times get hard,
I'll be by your side.
We'll only be a little prayer apart..
