A Nighttime Prayer

As evening shadows darken
Nighttime falls on the valley
Another day of work is over
Time to rest for you and me

A prayer and off to bed we go
Dreaming of what lies up ahead
Where we will live a life forever
In that land that knows no dread

It is up there we will meet our God
Then gather around His great throne
See a world that is of pure perfection
Find out things we have never known

When morning comes and we awake
We know just what lies ahead for us
When death takes our mortal body
We will spend all eternity with Jesus
