After you're sleeping I slip in your room
And I kneel down at your side
With my hand on your chest
As you take each breath
Here's what I pray for your life

God give this child a good heart
God give this child a good heart
One that cares for the weak
One that hears when You speak
A heart that will make you smile
God give this child a good heart

Lord, I keep thinking how I'm still your child
Even though I'm grown up now
And we both know I need to pray this for me
So tonight I'm asking somehow
(Repeat Chorus)
