Said my prayers
Before I went to bed
Crawled ‘neath the covers
And I laid my head upon
The pillow 

Dark is the night
With stars in the sky
Moon up above
Like an eye (island) in the sky

Wake in the morning
Want to stay in bed
At least it’s warm
Where I rest my head and sigh

Take a shower
And fix my lunch 
Race to work
And hope that I have work

Oh where is the time
When I had peace of mind
I hear the voices 
Rattling around inside this 
Sober mind of mine

Words to be spoken
Shared what is truth
But who will listen
When everyone is running
From the truth

Heard about the scriptures
Since I was a child
Some of them were preached
The rest gone by the way
Oh what did he say

What is the truth
And what are lies
Touched my heart
And the way the lies
Must have been in disguise

We must learn
To sift and discern
Reach for the truth
In the midst of our lives
This is the time

Learn our lessons
And show our love
That we received 
From GOD above
Oh what love

Mend the hearts
Of the brokenhearted
Save the souls
Of the dear departed
Before they are gone

Point to GOD
This is the way
These are the words 
HE did say
Wisdom discerned

And the rending of cloth
And the cry for the lost
Lifting up prayers 
At any cost
With love

Oh LORD save them all
Don’t let any fall
While time stands still
And waits for us
To pray

The Gospel of Christ
Is the truth and the way
Shining a light 
To show the way
Back home

Died on the cross
And rose again
Conquered death
And conquered sin
For all time

Shed His blood
To cleanse us all
Gave it freely
No cost at all
To you

Ask Him in
To your heart
Confess your sins
Make a new start
Today

Follow the way
He showed us all
Answer the cry
Answer the call
This day 

Lead the lost
To the Lord
To set them free
From their sin
And be saved
