All God's Children Need a Place to Rest

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
I pray the Lord my soul to take

'Cause all
All God's Children
Need a place to rest

Oh, all
All God's Children
Need a place to rest

God bless mommy
God bless daddy
God bless Frisky
God bless the team
Bless our house
The pope and JFK
Bless everyone I saw today

Oh, all
All God's Children
Need a place to rest

Now I lay me down to sleep
I see the people in the street
I wonder where they'll be tonight
When I'm tucked in and kissed good night

Oh, all
All God's Children
Need a place to rest

I wonder as I watch the stars
Does God see things the way they are
I'd ask why God lets things be
But God might ask the same of me

Oh, all
All God's Children
Need a place to rest

As I lay here wide awake
Exhausted from life's give and take
Give me strength to do what's right
So maybe I'll sleep well at night

Oh, all
All God's Children
Need a place to rest

Help me Lord to do my best
To walk with the weary and
Dispossessed
If I die before I should
I'd like to think I've understood

That all, All God's Children
Need a place to rest

Singin'
All, All God's Children
Need a place to rest

Oh, all
All, All God's Children
Need a place to rest

Need a place to rest
All God's Children
Need a place to rest
All God's Children

Need a place to rest
Need a place to rest
