Prayer

For Jon Simon

 

Kneeled by your bedside

you say your prayers

that I may follow you there

 

One to Lord Jesus

one to the stars

one to the Virgin so fair

 

Little Jon is sleeping

little Jon is leaving me now

 

His angel keeping

an eye on him somehow

 

Say goodnight to daddy

say goodnight to those

that you love

 

Wish I could meet you

beyond the Northern Star

 

And as you're sailing cross your sea

in a boat of light

 

You can shine to comfort me

through my darkest night

 

As you're sailing cross your sea

in a boat of light

 

You can shine to comfort me

through my darkest night

 

 

January 1978
