My Little Prayer

IT'S NOW AGAIN THE MORNING
AND MY PRAYERS ARE BEING SAID
IT'S BETTER 'CAUSE I'M WIDE AWAKE
NOT HALF ASLEEP IN BED

MY PRAYERS ARE LONG, THEY MUST INCLUDE
EVERY HURT AND STRIFE
THAT FRIENDS AND FAMILY CARRY
DOWN THIS ROAD WE ALL CALL LIFE

AFTER THANKS AND ADORATION
AND CONFESSING ALL MY SINS
AND ASKING GOD'S FORGIVENESS
FOR ALL THAT I HAVE BEEN

I SAY A SPECIAL LITTLE PRAYER
TO HIM WHO'LL ALWAYS BE
SO CLOSE A FRIEND I'LL EVER WANT
MY WEAKNESS HE WILL SEE

"WRAP TIGHT YOUR ARMS AROUND ME LORD
ALL DAY IF YOU PLEASE"
AND IF I MUST CRY OUT TODAY
I'LL NEED ONLY TO SAY "SQUEEZE"

STORMS

NEVER FEEL THAT IT IS YOU
WHEN THINGS TURN OUT ALL WRONG.
THE LITTLE TRIALS THAT WE GO THROUGH
JUST PROVE TO MAKE US STRONG.

IT TAKES A STONE UPON A STONE
TO BUILD A WALL SO FIRM.
THE WIND AND RAIN THAT BEAT IT DOWN
ARE LESSONS THAT WE LEARN.

REINFORCED WITH MORTAR MADE FROM
FAITH AND HOPE AND LOVE,
ASK THE FATHER FOR GUIDANCE
FOR HE'S WATCHING FROM ABOVE.

STORMS MAY COME AND STORMS MAY GO
SOME MAY BE FIERCE AND LOUD.
BUT REMEMBER ONE IMPORTANT THING
A RAINBOW WAITS BEHIND THE CLOUD.
