	        A Father's Prayer 

A          E        F#m      C#m 
Bless this day that it might be  
D               E      E7  
Free from all uncertainty  
A         E         F#m       C#m 
Free from tears and fears and doubt  
D  E                 A     
   Peace is all that matters  

And bless this house Lord while it stands  
For this old house is in Your Hands  
And when it falls then bless the ground  
For the ground is all that truly matters  

F#m                   C#m   
Bless this child with trusting eyes  
D           Bm         A 
That he may grow to realize  
F#m                  C#m   
Right from wrong and truth from lies  
D                         E 
For the truth is all that matters  

And bless this woman here at my side  
When I need a place to hide  
I crawl into her loving eyes  
        D      E        F#m   D  Bm  
Where I find a place to sleep  
E       E7       A   
Love is all that matters
