PRAYER IN THE NIGHT

Music by Paul Michael
Words by Paul Michael and KM's

Capo: 1st fret

Intro: (Em)

Some(Em)times in the night I lie here in fright
(D)I can feel the darkness
Closing (Em)in on me.
The night is so long.
I wait for the dawn.
If (D)only I could rest
From all this (Em)agony.(D)

(Em)Troubled by dreams,
I feel I could scream
(D)Looking for a way to end
The (Em)misery.
At the end of my rope
With no visible hope
I (D)call upon the Name
That always (Em)rescues me.

[Refrain:]
A (D)prayer in the night u(G)pon my bed.
A (D)prayer in the night is (G)all I need
To (C)chase away my (G)pain and fears
And (Am)make the prince of (D)darkness flee!

Chorus:
(G)Whenever I'm (D)down,
Whenever I'm (Am)lonely
(C)Whenever it's (Em)dark and I get a(D)fraid
(G)I call out the (D)Name
That never has (Am)failed me
(C)And the terror by (D)night is frightened a(G)way.

[Musical break:] (Em)

(Em)So in the night
When I try to sleep
(D)And I feel the darkness
Closing (Em)in on me,
I'm so weak and I know it's true
That (D)I could never make it
Through the (Em)night without You.

[Repeat refrain]

[Repeat chorus]

Chorus:
(D)Whenever I'm (Am)lonely
(C)Whenever it's (Em)dark
And I get a(D)fraid
(G)I call out the (D)Name
That never has (Am)failed me [Jesus]
(C)And the terror by (D)night
Is frightened a(G)way.
[Repeat]
