My Prayer

Glenn Miller

Words by Jimmy Kennedy, music by Georges Boulanger

As recorded by the Glenn Miller Orchestra on August 18th 1939 with Ray Eberle.



My prayer is to linger with you

At the end of the day

In a dream that‘s divine...

My prayer is a rapture in blue

With the world far away

And our lips close to mine.

Tonight, while our hearts are aglow,

Oh, tell me the words that I’m longing to know...

My prayer and the answer you give,

May they still be the same for as long as we live,

That you’ll always be there

At the end of my prayer!
