[Verse 1]
You are on your honor
Now be on your way
I'll be right behind you
You can hear me say

[Chorus]
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
He is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
He is waiting

[Verse 2]
Thought you'd live forever
Thought you'd never die
I am so familiar with each lonely cry
Oh baby, don't cry

[Chorus]
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
He is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
He is waiting

[Bridge]
Thought you'd live forever
Thought you'd change your mind
When you get to heaven
Tell me what you find
Peace of mind, I hope

[Chorus]
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
He is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
He is waiting

[Chorus]
Sleep, close your eyes, say goodnight now
He is waiting
Sleep, close your eyes, say your prayers now
Oh, I'll be waiting

[Outro]
Say goodnight, you're not forsaken
Say goodnight, he's waiting
Say goodnight, you're not forsaken
Say goodnight, he's waiting
