[00:15.11]As I lay you down to sleep
[00:19.00]I pray the Lord your soul to keep
[00:22.84]Cause I don't need that much for me
[00:26.91]This is a mother's prayer
[00:30.45]I prayed for angels by your side
[00:34.55]Ask they watch you day and night
[00:38.55]Walk with you all through your life
[00:42.65]This is a mother's prayer
[00:47.35]I pray that all the dreams you dream come true
[00:54.53]And every star you wish upon
[00:58.74]Grants every wish times two
[01:01.45]I hope one day you'll get the chance
[01:05.76]To truly see
[01:09.51]What real love is
[01:12.95]Like you're showing me
[01:16.85]As I watch you fast asleep
[01:20.56]I close my eyes and pray for peace
[01:24.55]Cause now it means much more to me
[01:28.48]This is a mother's prayer
[01:32.22]And as you grow and the seasons pass
[01:36.22]I hope that time won't move too fast
[01:40.35]Though it is too much to ask
[01:44.17]This is a mother's prayer
[01:49.25]I pray that when you give your heart it's true
[01:56.25]And all the love you give away
[02:00.54]Comes back to you times two
[02:03.22]I hope one day you'll get the chance
[02:07.46]To truly see
[02:11.17]What a real love is
[02:14.65]And what you mean to me
[02:21.56]In this great big world
[02:23.65]You can't stay small forever
[02:28.51]Cause before I know you'll be grown
[02:32.41]And standing on your own
[02:35.78]But I hope these words are something that you'll treasure
[02:42.90]And you'll get the chance to whisper them
[02:46.65]To children of your own
[02:51.60]
[03:20.45]I pray that all the dreams you dream come true
[03:27.59]And every star you wish upon
[03:31.81]Grants every wish times two
[03:34.35]I hope one day you'll get the chance
[03:38.70]To truly see
[03:42.60]What real love is
[03:46.25]Like you're showing me
[03:58.00]This is a mother's prayer
