Night Time Salmes

Now I lay me down to sleep
I've recited it all till it was 
part of my speech

On to grow up and have 
children of my own, 
she's learned all the words
now she prays right along

Generation after generation 
the words stay the same, 
because a verse with such 
power needs nothing 
changed

So ..say this prayer with 
your kids and say it often 
for it will open their hearts 
and  lead them straight
                                                                                         
                          into heaven.
