A MOTHER’S PRAYER
Rachel Aldous
Intro: C ‐ C6 ‐ C
Verse: Prayer:
C G F G F May God grant you peace
My sweet baby on loan from above in the midst of a storm
C Dm Gsus‐G May God give you strength even
no better treasure could I more love when you’re forlorn
C G F G F May you answer the door when
I stand here beside your bed as I pray Jesus comes knocking
C Dm Gsus‐G May wisdom guide when
I lay my hand on your head and I say: your mouth is talkin’
May discretion protect you
Chorus: and keep you pure
F Gsus G May you never stumble
May you grow up to serve Him or fall for a lure
C F May your heart remain humble
all of your days to the very end
Dm Gsus G May uprightness and truth
May He lead you and guide you be what you defend
C F May the world not ensnare
in all of your ways or change who you are
Dm Gsus G May the light that's within you
May His hand bless your future with shine like the stars
C F May angels surround you
friendships that last body, spirit, mind
Dm Gsus G May favor and peace be yours to find
May you cherish your youth May rejection and pain
C F never reach you
and not grow up too fast May your spirit grow bold
for what you’re called to
Verse: As you rest in God’s care I will rest too
C G F G F Knowing that Jesus is watching over you
I stare in wonder at your tiny frame Amen
C Dm Gsus‐G
Just to think God knows you by name
C G F G F
He knows every hair on your beautiful head
C Dm
He knows your thoughts before they are
Gsus‐G
