This I Pray Songtext
von Stryper

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take

Forgive me, Lord, for I have sinned
Have mercy on the shape I′m in
And if I've fallen from Your grace
Help me, Lord, to find my place

I′m in a storm with no way out
The water's rough, I'm tossed about
I know that there′s blue sky′s above
It's in Your mercy and Your love

I swear I won′t go down without a fight
The darkest night will always lead to light
Take my hand and help me find my way
I don't wanna die, just give me one more day
This I pray
Oh, yeah


I crossed a bridge and lost my way
For years and years I′ve gone astray
And if I live another day
I pray the Lord to guide my way

I need a savior here and now
I know I'm sinking yet somehow
I′m reaching for some final peace
Before my time begins to cease, yeah

I swear I won't go down without a fight
The darkest night will always lead to light
Take my hand and help me find my way
I don't wanna die, just give me one more day
This I pray
Yeah

I swear I won′t go down without a fight
The darkest night will always lead to light
So take my hand and help me find my way
I don′t wanna die, just give me one more day

I swear I won't go down without a fight
The darkest night will always lead to light
Take my hand and help me find my way
I don′t wanna die, just give me one more day
This I pray


Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And if I die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
