B[D]edt[A]ime
She sees her [D]son on his kne[A]es
The pr[D]ayer that she h[A]ears through the do[E]or
Makes her ill at[A] ease
"[D]Jes[A]us,"
she hears a y[D]oung boy pr[A]ay
"Could you br[D]ing back my d[A]addy
I k[E]now that you'll find a w[A]ay"
(Chorus:)
And the n[D]ext time you see Daddy
T[A]ell him I'm alright
There's a [D]fire in my [E]heart for him
that's [A]always burning bright
T[D]ell him that I p[E]ray for him
[A]Each and every n[D]ight
Bedtime
Where she taught him to pray
"Now I lay me down to sleep"
Were the words he would say
"Jesus,"
she hears him again
She faces the faith of a child
That's no longer pretend
repeat chorus
Bedtime
In her room all alone
She feels a presence of someone unseen
Someone unknown
"Jesus,"
she hears herself start
"Let the fire of forgiveness burn bright
In this broken down heart"
And the next time you see Johnny
Tell him it's allright
There's a fire of foregiveness
That's always burning bright
There's someone he can pray to
Each and every night
