In the night
Just before you sleep
Will you pray The Lord
My soul to keep
Safe and sound
Until I'm home again
Tell the kids
That I won't be long
Will you ask The Lord
To keep them strong
Safe and sound
Until I'm home again
So say a prayer for me
And I'll pray for you
Darling everyday
That I am far away
Tell little Joe Hello
And I'm on my way
With a peaceful tune
I'm comin' home to you
Though you're sad
And so far away
Darling in my heart
You'll always stay
Safe and sound
Until I'm home again
Baby though
You are out of sight
You are in my heart
Day and night
Safe and sound
Until I'm home again
So say a prayer for me
And I'll pray for you
Darling everyday
That I am far away
So say a prayer for me
And I'll pray for you
Darling everyday
That I am far away
So say a prayer for me
And I'll pray for you
Darling everyday
That I am far away
