Loretta Lynn - When I Hear My Children Pray

Loretta Lynn

When I Hear My Children Pray

(L. Waldrop)

(Someday I'll be strong enough)
(To make that church bells ring)
(And when my voice grows steady)
(I can help the choir sing.)

(Somehow I can be usefull)
(So put me to the test)
(I know I can't do very much)
(But Lord I'll do my best.)

Last night just at bed time
I looked in upon my son
And the picture I saw as I stood there
Was surely a blessed one.

Proudly I watched and listened
To all he tried to say
'Cause it makes my heart just burst with pride
When I hear my children pray.

And he said dear Lord I'm just a little boy
And I don't know how to pray
But so many of your people
Has slowly turned away.

Well, maybe there's something I can do
To help in your great plan
I know I can't do very much
But I'll do the best I can.

Couldn't I light the little candles
Or maybe sweep the pews
I'll do anything dear Lord
Just as long as it's for you.

Why, can I open up the doors
Or dust your sacred stand
I know I can do something
If you'll just hold my hand.

Yes, proudly I stood and listened
To all he tried to say
And it makes my heart just burst with pride
When I hear my children pray.

(I know I can't do very much)
(But Lord I'll do my best...)

Mirror lyrics:

(But Lord I'll do my best...)
(I know I can't do very much)

When I hear my children pray.
And it makes my heart just burst with pride
To all he tried to say
Yes, proudly I stood and listened

If you'll just hold my hand.
I know I can do something
Or dust your sacred stand
Why, can I open up the doors

Just as long as it's for you.
I'll do anything dear Lord
Or maybe sweep the pews
Couldn't I light the little candles

But I'll do the best I can.
I know I can't do very much
To help in your great plan
Well, maybe there's something I can do

Has slowly turned away.
But so many of your people
And I don't know how to pray
And he said dear Lord I'm just a little boy

When I hear my children pray.
'Cause it makes my heart just burst with pride
To all he tried to say
Proudly I watched and listened

Was surely a blessed one.
And the picture I saw as I stood there
I looked in upon my son
Last night just at bed time

(But Lord I'll do my best.)
(I know I can't do very much)
(So put me to the test)
(Somehow I can be usefull)

(I can help the choir sing.)
(And when my voice grows steady)
(To make that church bells ring)
(Someday I'll be strong enough)

(L. Waldrop)
