As I lay me down to sleep
|
I pray the lord my soul to keep
|
And for someone more dear to me
|
Than words can tell or eyes can see.
|
|
Expose my heart and lay it bare
|
Let her see the love that's there
|
Use your power so great and wise
|
Make me wonderful in her eyes.
|
|
Every night I bow my head
|
And say a prayer for daily bread
|
Tonight I ask for a greater prize
|
Make me wonderful in her eyes.
|
|
Let her look at me
|
Through the eyes of love
|
And treasure me
|
To the stars above.
|
|
Let her know how strong the need
|
As earth needs rain for strength to seed
|
Make her love the night and day
|
You always answer when I pray.
|
|
Touch her heart with tenderness
|
And let me feel completely blessed
|
|
Let her vision come behold
|
The mirror of my very soul
|
Reflect our love to twice it's size
|
And make me wonderful in her eyes.
|
Make me wonderful in her eyes ...
|
