Goodnight prayer

by barbara   Jun 5, 2007


Now i lay me down to sleep
this secret's mine and God's to keep
guide me through the starry night
take away my childhood fright
if i die before i wake
please dear lord make his soul quake
bless my family and all they've done
except for him he is NO ONE!!!
give the children pleasant dreams
don't make them suffer terror and screams
don't take the girl's innocence
and let the boy's know sufference
don't bother giving the young girl's a test
even if they heal its not for the best
and please dear lord i ask you a favor
to let me sleep peacefully no more night terror
thank you and good night
father son spirit amen
i will have no fright
the lord is my friend

    That one was great =) Remember though, by staying angry it's only hurting you and will end up burning you from the inside out =( Believe me, I know this =P Not asking you to forgive him, I wouldn't be able to either, but don't let it rule your life ^_^
    And yes, may God protect the little children and save them from knowing how cruel the world can be ^_^
    Another 5 like all your others and hang in there ^_^
