The Middle of the Night

Should you wake up in the middle of the night and you can’t go back to sleep

Maybe someone needs a prayer from you a blessing from God they seek

Oh dear God hear my plea give that someone whatever they need

Maybe a brother who’s sick and in pain or some street person caught out in the rain

Maybe a sister who is depressed a house full of children with no happiness

Oh dear God, hear my plea, give those someone’s whatever they need

Maybe someone who’s committed a sin to ashamed to ask on their own

Maybe someone who’s been treated real bad or some that’s been left alone

Oh dear God, hear my plea, give your children whatever they need

Maybe someone with nothing to eat no clothes on their back or shoes on their feet

Maybe a child that’s been abused or some family bible that’s never been used

Oh dear God, hear my plea, give these people whatever they need

Dear Lord, could it be someone that doesn’t know you someone left out in the cold

Well you know your children better than me but I remember your Son that was sold

Oh dear God, hear my plea, give all your people whatever they need

A blessing from you dear Lord I seek and that is to help me get back to sleep
