When I Say My Prayers

What's it like now that you're safe at home?
And do you watch over us here below?
Lifted to the light, wish we'd had more time
Gone away, but I still keep you close

So I'm on my knees tonight
'Cause you've just been on my mind
Oh, oh

And I see you in the arms of Jesus when I close my eyes
'Cause you were His before I ever got to call you mine
One day I know I'm gonna hold you when I meet you there
Till then my heart can reach to Heaven when I say my prayers

Ooh-ooh-ooh
When I say my prayers
Ooh-ooh-ooh

Bittersweet, beautiful mystery
To think of you there in eternity
Free and so alive by the Father's side
In paradise, saving a place for me

My love letters to the sky
I ask about you all the time
Oh, oh

And I see you in the arms of Jesus when I close my eyes
'Cause you were His before I ever got to call you mine
One day I know I'm gonna hold you when I meet you there
Till then my heart can reach to Heaven when I say my prayers

Ooh-ooh-ooh
When I say my prayers (when I say my prayers)
Ooh-ooh-ooh

So I'm on my knees tonight
'Cause you've just been on my mind
When I say my prayers!

And I see you in the arms of Jesus when I close my eyes
'Cause you were His before I ever got to call you mine
One day I know I'm gonna hold you when I meet you there
Till then my heart can reach to Heaven when I say my prayers

Ooh-ooh-ooh
When I say my prayers
Ooh-ooh-ooh
When I say my prayers
Ooh-ooh-ooh (yeah, you've just been on my mind!)
When I say my prayers
Ooh-ooh-ooh (so I'm on my knees tonight!)
When I say my prayers
