Psalm Passage at Night
Parody of "Sunglasses at Night" performed and written by Corey Hart
(The Book of Psalms)

I read a Psalm passage at night
So I can, so I can -- watch the way they prayed in olden times
And I read my Psalm passage at night
So I can, so I can -- keep scraps of the Scriptures in my mind

Oh, I -- sleep so peacefully
'Cause God's my security
And He's got a hold of me
I turn to Him in faith

Don't switch the radio on -- try and pray -- don't go
Don't ask for rainchecks -- abide and stay -- don't go
You can't be leaving
'Cause you gotta make time at night and pray, I know

And I read a Psalm passage at night
So I can, so I can -- forget the negative news that wrecked your day
And -- I read my Psalm passage at night
So I can, so I can -- see the light that guides me toward my prize

Oh, I -- I sleep so peacefully
'Cause God's my security
And He's got a hold of me
I turn to Him and pray

Don't just go lay down and draw the shades, oh no
Don't pass up prayin' 'cause the night is late, oh no
I can't just sleep now
Don't be ungrateful to God this day, oh no
Your prayers will shape you
'Cause you've got it made if He guides your way, I know

I know

I say
I read a Psalm passage at night
I read a Psalm passage at night
I read a Psalm passage at night
I pray, too, at night
I read a Psalm passage at night
I read a Psalm passage at night
I read a Psalm passage at night
I ain't lyin' to you
I read a Psalm passage at night
I read a Psalm passage at night

Psalm 1:1-2
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night.
