Evening draws its curtain
Stars twinkle in the sky
The moon shines in the darkness
From its home up there so high

I sit alone in the quiet
And listen to the breeze
Making lovely music
As it mingles with the trees

A prayer wells up within me
My soul begins to sing
The prayer and song soar higher
As though on eagle's wings

Beyond the stars they travel
To God in heaven above
Filled with thanks and praises
For His never ending love.

His presence here beside me
Takes me peacefully through the night
Until He wakes me up tomorrow to
His perfect morning light.
