Bright Night

                Bright Night                1/15/98

1)    It is late at night, and he should be sleeping by now.
    It is late at night, and he should be sleeping by now
    Tomorrow come soon, and there is hard work ahead
    But he is thinking of another day, another way
    Show him the way
    Friends, they stand by--open the door
    He has what he needs to be content, it’s just late at night
    Go ahead and send up your prayers,
    Play your part
    There is one who loves you with a perfect heart
    And when the time is right, you will open your eyes
    And see Love, Who’s been guiding you right from the start

2)    When they picked her up, laughter awoke in her heart
    When they picked her up, life laughed aloud deep inside
    And ever since, the night is bright as the day
    Yes she’s staying, she’s praying, she’s staying
    Oh show me the One
    Friends, they stand by--open the door
    We have what we need to be content--it is bright tonight
    I will send up my prayers, I will play my part
    I know the one who loves us with a perfect heart
    And when the time is right, we open our eyes
    And see Love, Who’s been guarding us, right from the start
