Lyrics A Child's Prayer - Janice Kapp Perry
Night
time,
quiet
time
Loved
ones
gather
at
day's
end
I
hold
them
close,
I
hope
they
know
That
God
will
always
be
their
friend
And
just
before
I
say
goodbye
My
little
one
is
by
my
chair
I
close
my
eyes,
I
dim
the
light
And
listen
to
this
simple
prayer
Heavenly
Father,
are
you
really
there?
And
do
you
hear
and
answer
every
child's
prayer?
Some
say
that
Heaven
is
far
away
But
I
feel
it
close
around
me
as
I
pray
Heavenly
Father,
I
remember
now
Something
that
Jesus
told
disciples
long
ago
"Suffer
the
children
to
come
to
me"
Father,
in
prayer
I'm
coming
now
to
thee
Pray,
he
is
there
Speak,
he
is
listening
You
are
his
child
His
love
now
surrounds
you
He
hears
your
prayer
He
loves
the
children
Of
such
is
the
kingdom,
the
kingdom
of
Heaven
Heavenly
Father,
are
you
really
there?
(Pray,
he
is
there)
And
do
you
hear
and
answer
every
child's
prayer?
(Speak,
he
is
listening)
Some
say
that
Heaven
is
far
away
(You
are
his
child)
But
I
feel
it
close
around
me
as
I
pray
(His
love
now
surrounds
you)
Heavenly
Father,
I
remember
now
(He
hears
your
prayer)
Something
that
Jesus
told
disciples
long
ago
(He
loves
the
children)
"Suffer
the
children
to
come
to
me"
(Of
such
is
the
kingdom)
Father,
in
prayer
I'm
coming
now
to
thee
(The
kingdom
of
Heaven)
Heavenly
Father,
are
you
really
there?
He
hears
and
answers
every
childs'
prayer
(Please,
hear
my
prayer)
