little prayer

when i wake alone at night

and you're so far away

i say a little prayer for you

and everything's okay

there's sunlight in your sparkling eyes

and summer in your smile

i'm sending up this little prayer

you'll stay here for awhile

cause heaven knows i've been lonely

oh but mercy came to me

heaven must have sent you down

to set my poor heart free

so when i fall asleep at night

your angel face i see

thank heaven for this little prayer

that sent you here to me

cause heaven knows i've been lonely

oh but mercy came to me

heaven must have sent you down

to set my poor heart free

so when i fall asleep at night

your angel face i see

thank heaven for this little prayer

that sent you here to me

thank heaven for this little prayer

that sent you here to me
