THE PRAYER

THE PRAYER
The little boy
he crawls to his knees
crosses his hands so that God can see hush
- quiet - what?
the little boy who says his prayers
Good God don't go away from mommy
she undresses me and bathes and stays with me
then she dresses me in warm nightgown
God bless daddy
'cause I forgot When I think of what happened today
a little song comes to mind
I must not stop saying my prayer
forgive me God,
I ask you kindly
My nightgown has a hood inside the hood I
hide my head it covers my eyes and my forehead
aswell nobody knows that I am there
Thank you God for a good day
did I forget something, what was it?
I prayed for daddy and thought of you yes now I remember
- God bless me
The little boy sleeps well now the day is over,
the night has come hush
- quiet - what?
the little boy who said his prayers
