Do you remember now I lay me down to sleep
We'd pray the Lord above our souls to keep
And if we would die before we awake
We'd pray the Lord our souls to take
And Matthew and Mark and Luke and John
Would protect the beds that we lay on
But standing there in a midwest dawn
They said your only one was gone
That night I heard an angel cry
Maybe in the world of light, they watch and wonder why
I will be there for you
I swear by all that's holy, it's the least I can do
My life won't be the same
They'll be a thousand acts of kindness
And compassion in his name---Jeremy
There were summer lawns of green
And fields of white
We were frightened children in the night
How could we know wrong from right
In our crazy little home
And we were young, how could we know
The way the world would hurt us so
So yesterday they let me know
Your only one was gone
Chorus
And what my sister can I say
To comfort you on this sad day
Because I know that there's no way
To know just how you feel
But you are strong and you'll survive
Despite the sadness in your eyes
You'll keep his memory alive
In this world he left behind
And last night I heard an angel cry
Maybe in the world of light they watch and wonder why
