I feel your little hand so still
and shallow breathing near my ear;
and pray the Lord will bless and keep
my precious boy within His reach . . .
I pray as you are sleeping sound
the angels will surround you now;
and keep you safe all through the night;
and 'rouse you with the morning light . . .
I watch you flutter in your dreams;
and pray that you will grow to be
a man of great integrity
who makes your dreams reality . . .
But most importantly I pray,
as you wake with each new day,
you'll look to God in faithfulness
and trust Him with your every step . . .
I pray the Lord will guard your way;
and help me teach you how to pray;
to always seek God's holy face,
and lean on His unchanging grace . . .
I pray the Lord will help me show
my precious boy the things I know;
about a Love that never fails;
about a Love that always bears;
About a Love that only comes
from faith in God's own precious Son;
who gave His Son that mine might be . . .
free for all eternity.
