A Fathers Prayer Chords & Lyrics - Mickey Newbury

[A]Bless this [E]day that [F#m]it might [C#m]be
[D]Free from all un[E]certain[E7]ty
[A]Free from [E]tears and [F#m]fears and [C#m]doubt
[D] [E]Peace is all that [A]matters

And bless this house Lord while it stands
For this old house is in Your Hands
And when it falls then bless the ground
For the ground is all that truly matters

[F#m]Bless this child with [C#m]trusting eyes
[D]That he may [Bm]grow to rea[A]lize
[F#m]Right from wrong and [C#m]truth from lies
[D]For the truth is all that [E]matters

And bless this woman here at my side
When I need a place to hide
I crawl into her loving eyes
Where I [D]find a [E]place to [F#m]sleep [D] [Bm]
[E]Love is [E7]all that [A]matters
