David Harris - Bathe Them with His Light

Every night I pray to God
for him my soul to keep,
that he will bathe me with his light
and wisdom every night.
I ask for peace within our world,
and to guide us with his love.
With so many prayers to hear,
I wonder if he ever hears mine,
then I wake to a brand new day,
and hope that he has heard.
Then that little peace at dawn
before the birds begin to sing,
gives me hope that this new day,
somewhere around the world
will see a little peace come
upon a conflict and stay.
That he will bathe them with his light
wherever that peace may be.
