G		D	    Em7
I would lay me down to sleep
C			D	   G
And pray the Lord my soul to keep
		       D		Em7
And though I never saw Him there
C		D		G
I believe He heard each prayer
        C			     G
For God was great,  And God was good
Am7	       G			C
And I knew if I spoke the words
D7sus		C
He would be listening

G			D	Em7
The years can take us far away
C		    D	       G
>From the simple child like faith
G		D	Em7
But I am longing to return
C		      D		G
To the place where I first learned
         C		  G
That God is great,  and God is good
Am7  G	 C
So, I will speak the words


Chorus:
G		    Em   D   G
God, our Father,  once again
		G    C
I bow my head to pray
        G		      Em  D   G				G        C
You are my Father and my friend, and You hear every word I say
G   Am7	B		Em
A prayer for forgiveness,  A desprate cry for help
         D	    G                   C
Or praise flowin from a thankful heart
         Am7	        D		   	C	     G
Like each time before,  I come knowin You're still listening
G	      D	  	Em7
I will never understand
C		     D	        G
How the words of mortal man
G			D	Em7
Can reach the ears of One so pure
C		         D		G
And touch His heart,  They do, I'm sure!
       C			G
For God is great, and God is good
Am7  G     C
And He is love
