To Believe Lyrics - Jackie Evancho

Before I lay me down to rest 

I ask the Lord one small request 

I know I have all I could need 

But this prayer is not for me 

Too many people on this day 

Don't have a peaceful place to stay 

Let all fighting cease that your children may see peace 

Wipe their tears of sorrow away 

To believe in a day 

When hunger and war will pass away 

To have the hope amidst despair 

That every sparrow's counted 

That you hear each cry and listen to each prayer 

Let me try always to believe

That we can hear the hearts that grieve 

Please help us not ignore 

The anguished cries of the poor 

Or their pain will never leave 

To believe in a day 

When hunger and war will pass away 

To have the hope amidst despair 

That every sparrow's counted 

That you hear their cries and listen to each prayer 

(spoken prayer) 

Father, as you see, I'm just a child 

And there's so much to understand 

But if Your Grace should surround me 

Then I'll do the best I can 

I promise, I'll do the very best I can 

To believe in a day 

When hunger and war will pass away

To have the hope amidst despair 

That every sparrow's counted 

That you hear each cry and listen to each 

Prayer {Hear each cry and listen to each prayer} 

Help us do Your will oh Father 

In the name of all that's true 

And we'll see in one another 

The loving image of You
