Say A Little Prayer (Beautiful Boy)



Say A Little Prayer (Beautiful Boy)
Author: Mark V. Markov

Close your eyes
And have no fear
Evil is gone
It's on the run
And Lord Jesus Christ is here

Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep
Say a little prayer
Say a little prayer

"Lord Jesus Christ, every day, in every way
It's getting better and better."

Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Lord Jesus Christ waits for You
To see you in heaven.
Yet in this life
You just have to be patient.

Cause it's a long way to go
Upon a road of faith
Upon a road of hope
It's a long way to go
But in the mean time

Before you cross the street,
Please always hold God's hand.
In this life as you live
Sometimes things happen to you
As you are busy
Making other plans

Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Before you go to sleep.
Say a little prayer,
Say a little prayer

"Lord Jesus Christ, everyday, in every way
It's getting better and better."

Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Always believe and be faithful
To the Lord Jesus Christ
Your Redeemer
Your Savior.

Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy
Beautiful beautiful
Beautiful boy

Beautiful child
Before you go to sleep.
Say a little prayer,
Say a little prayer

"Lord Jesus Christ, everyday, in every way
It's getting better and better."


James 1:17 (ESV)

17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
