Premiere Cast - Evening Prayers lyrics

Carrie: Jesus watches from the wall But his face is cold as stone If he loves me why do I feel so all alone Baby savior meek and mild What do you do with my prayers if you hear me why do I feel that no one cares Margaret: God almighty she's only a child But the woman's waking inside her She will be lost if her pa**ion runs wild so i can't let her stumble and fall as you helped your child divine give me the strength to help mine Carrie: Mama sees inside my soul but her face is cold as stone if she loves me why do I feel so all alone so alone There's a movement in my head Saints and angels what can it be it's growing it's stirring it's churning shifting bending (Spoken) What's happening to me? Margaret: (spoken) You can go to bed now. Carrie: (spoken) Yes mama. Margaret: (spoken) It's getting late. Say your prayers Carrie: (spoken) Now I lay me down to sleep Together: (spoken) Pray the lord my soul to keep if i die before i wake Pray the lord my soul to take Margaret: I never wanted to cause you such pain But there are times when my life was so frightening maybe i do things that i can't explain but my feelings for you never change you are still my precious one can you forgive what I've done? Carrie: mama you don't need forgiveness from me oh I know that you do what you have to I want to dry all your tears for you see that i'm sorry for letting you down god bless me now can you look inside your heart show me the mercy that you've always shown Margaret: (Simultaneous with Carrie above) I was wrong It hurts me to hurt you I'd rather die than see you suffer one day you'll bless me, by taking away look inside your heart that's where forgiveness must start after all Together: We have no one except each other Carrie: I was so afraid that you'd leave me alone and I'd die if you pushed me away promise you'll be here You're the reason I'm alive You're my survival In my life there's only one thing true I love you Margaret: (simultaneous with above Carrie) the world outside that will leave you stranded You're the reason I'm alive You're the only reason I'm alive In my life there's only one thing true I love (always love) you
