When I Hear My Children Pray (Duet with Ernest Ray Lynn)

歌詞

(Someday I'll be strong enough to make that church bells ring And when my voice grows steady I can help the choir sing Somehow I can be usefull so put me to the test I know I can't do very much but Lord I'll do my best) Last night just at bed time I looked in upon my son And the picture I saw as I stood there was surely a blessed one Proudly I watched and listened to all he tried to say Cause it makes my heart just burst with pride when I hear my children pray And he said dear Lord I'm just a little boy and I don't know how to pray But so many of your people has slowly turned away Well maybe there's something I can do to help in your great plan I know I can't do very much but I'll do the best I can Couldn't I light the little candles or maybe sweep the pews I'll do anything dear Lord just as long as it's for you Why can I open up the doors or dust your sacred stand I know I can do something if you'll just hold my hand Yes proudly I stood and listened to all he tried to say And it makes my heart just burst with pride when I hear my children pray (I know I can't do very much but Lord I'll do my best)
