My little boy was put to bed tired from his busy day
I tucked him in, kissed his face and said it's time to pray
As I slowly turned to leave the room I stopped to hear him say
Dad I need to talk to someone now, so you must go away

Dear God I pray please keep our world safe
You must have loved us quite a lot to make us such a pretty place
If You'll let me grow to be a man
I'll give you all the help I can, so
God please keep our world safe

They say You made this great big world in less than seven days
I know Your Son lived here a while, did You know I know His name
It's sad to think some people don't really love You at all
I'll do my best to change their minds if You'll let me grow real tall
