The Mamas The Papas

DEDICATED TO THE ONE I LOVE
 (Pauling-Bass)

 While I'm far away from you my baby
 I know it's hard for you my baby
 Because it's hard for me my baby
 And the darkest hour is just before dawn

 Each night before you go to bed my baby
 Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
 And tell all the stars above
 This is dedicated to the one I love
 (love can never be exactly like we want it to be)

 I could be satisfied knowing you love me
 (and there's one thing I want you to do
 especially for me)
 And it's something that everybody needs

 While I'm far away from you my baby
 Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
 Because it's hard for me my baby
 And the darkest hour is just before dawn

 If there's one thing I want you to do especially for me
 Then it's something that everybody needs

 Each night before you go to bed my baby
 Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
 And tell all the stars above
 This is dedicated to the one I love
 This is dedicated to the one I love
 This is dedicated to the one I love
 This is dedicated to the one I love

Hi mikamada,

Are you discouraged and are you blue
Are clouds obscuring the sun from view?
Keep trusting Jesus, though storms assail
You have His promise He will not fail

CHORUS
It's always darkest before the dawn,
Don't be discouraged but carry on,
He'll not forsake you, the sun will break through
It's always darkest before the dawn.

He knows your heartache, He understands,
Just put your problems in His great hands,
No trouble meets you but in His will,
He's not forgotten, He loves you still.
