God (Lord), Lead Me To Your Holy Place (My Nightly Prayer To God)

I know it ain’t that time yet

Ain’t my time to go

But, you know what? I don’t even care.

I don’t care if it ain’t my time yet

And I don’t care, momma, if you tell me it ain’t my turn to go

‘Cause, momma, the bible say that He’ll come someday

He’ll come someday and take the righteous away

In the book of Psalms it say, plenty of times it tell you to constantly pray.

Every night ‘fore I go to sleep I talk to Him

Every night I say to Him,

God, when it be my time to go, 

Lord, Lead me to Your holy place.”

I say to Him

God, help me get through one more day, 

Lord, won’t You light the way for me,

Show me which path I have to take, which road on my long journey I need to choose. Teach me how I prove my loyalty to You. God, how can I show You the love I feel towards You and Your only son, Jesus?”

Momma, you and I both know we all gotta go someday,

We all gotta go home to heaven sometime. But, momma, I love you.

Lord my God, lead me to Your holy place. 

 Every night ‘fore I go to sleep I say my nightly prayer to God.
