Before I lay me down to rest 
I ask the Lord one small request 
I know I have all I could need 
But this prayer is not for me 
Too many people on this day 
Don't have a peaceful place to stay 
Let all fighting cease that your children may see peace 
Wipe their tears of sorrow away 
 [bad word]  
To believe in a day 
When hunger and war will pass away 
To have the hope amidst despair 
That every sparrow's counted 
That you hear each cry and listen to each prayer 

Let me try always to believe 
That we can hear the hearts that grieve 
Please help us not ignore 
The anguished cries of the poor 
Or their pain will never leave 
[ Lyrics from: [bad word] /www [bad word] j/jackie+evancho/to+believe_20914685.html ]  [bad word] ) 
To believe in a day 
When hunger and war will pass away 
To have the hope amidst despair 
That every sparrow's counted 
That you hear their cries and listen to each prayer 

(Spoken prayer) 
Father, as you see, I'm just a child 
And there's so much to understand 
But if Your Grace should surround me 
Then I'll do the best I can 
I promise, I'll do the very best I can 
 [bad word] plus) 
To believe in a day 
When hunger and war will pass away 
To have the hope amidst despair 
That every sparrow's counted 
That you hear each cry and listen to each 
Prayer {Hear each cry and listen to each prayer} 
Help us do Your will oh Father 
In the name of all that's [bad word] 
And we'll see in one another 
The loving image of You
