Bedtime Prayers: Lullabies & Peaceful Worship

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Twila Paris is very clear about the intent of this release, writing in the CD's liner notes that "this is a lullaby album." You'll find an abundance of sleepy-time melodies and gentle, peaceful harmonies throughout this release. As much as the material is geared toward young minds and hearts, there's also a strong affinity toward mothers as well. Paris weaves her lyrical content around the late-night meditations of many new moms, not to mention the little ones they hold. "My Delight" and "Your Whole Life Long" are especially moving and beautiful ballads. This would be an ideal present for a friend or loved one who's expecting. --Michael Lyttle

There is nothing subtle about Butterfly Kisses & Bedtime Prayers. Those given to sentimentality and open weeping at Hallmark commercials and episodes of Seventh Heaven are in for a treat from Bob Carlisle, along with several guest artists. The title cut, a ballad about Daddy's little girl on her wedding day, is sure to put a knot in your throat and a tear in your eye. The remainder of the album--a blend of modern and traditional lullabies--celebrates the joy and wonder of parenthood through pop-styled versions of "Mozart's Lullaby," "Jesus Loves Me," and "Edelweiss," along with a few Carlisle originals. Vocally, he often sounds moved nearly to tears himself, and while his mellow tones are deeper and more multifaceted, his pull-on-the-heartstrings approach is akin to that of consummate oversinger Michael Bolton. In other words, this is not a recording for everyone. But for those who believe more is more, this is perfect musical accompaniment to the overwhelming pride, love, and gratitude for one's child. --Paige La Grone

Brings tears to my eyes.......2004-02-13

This CD has become my favorite lullaby CD. The first day I got it I must of listened to the entire CD 3 times. It just makes me cry when I hear the music and look at my infant daughter knowing she is going to grow up and not be this small forever.

Not what I expected.......2004-02-09

This is overall a great cd, but for one thing... I bought it mainly for the Butterfly Kisses song, but to my great disappointmnent the version on this cd is not the really deep and powerful one we always hear on the radio. It's much lighter and kind of wimmpy, I thought. Defintely not as good as the version I was expecting.

Beautiful!.......2003-05-09

Bob Carlisle has a beautiful voice! His song Butterfly Kisses is very touching and very beautiful. It made me think of my childhood days with my grandfather. A lot of good memories.

47-year-old males for Twila, unite!.......2007-02-21

From the perspective of a 47-year-old male, not expecting any more children anytime soon: Previous reviewers are right--this is not a "children's lullaby" CD. Yes, it serves very well for that purpose, but really this is the best Twila Paris recording, in my opinion, since the mega-classic "Sanctuary." Heartfelt lyrics and vocals, great melodies. Kids love it, too, but you will find yourself listening even when they're asleep. "I pray that you will follow Him your whole life long."

A favorite CD to give to new parents.......2006-11-06

This is a favorite CD to give to expectant parents. Twyla Paris provides a very worshipful experience to the music, and her voice is lovely. I recommend this to all people who would like to blend their faith with their families.

Relaxes babies...relaxes the parents.......2006-08-18

Very comforting, soothing, quiet music-to-whisper-by. We played this at bedtime during our twins' first year.

My 4.5 year old son STILL loves this CD..........2006-08-02

I bought this CD for my son when he was a baby.... it is the ONLY CD he will let me play for him at night... I know, I've tried other CDs and this is the one he always wants... it is very soothing and gentle. We've been playing it for him for 4 years now and it still works like a charm, and it is a CD that will never "wear on you." it is a beautiful, loving CD. I highly recommend it, and purchase it for all of my friends who are expecting little ones :)

Perfect Music for Family.......2006-03-07

I originally bought this for my new born son to listen to when he goes to sleep, but I have found myself listening to this. It is definitely soothing music for quiet times in the evening to wind down from long and busy days.

We've worn out 2 of these CD's already!.......2004-03-09

My 6 year old listened to this every night for over a year...it is beautiful, soothing and comforting and there is nothing to jar a child who is falling asleep. I hear him humming to it after I shut his door, and then he just drops off to sleep. It's great, and I'm buying my third copy!

Beautiful, soothing bedtime music..........1999-11-07

We received this as a gift and began playing it at night to soothe our fussy newborn. At first I never payed much attention to the lyrics, but I did notice and appreciate the very soothing melodies. One night while holding our daughter in my arms I really started listening to the lyrics. A few of them perfectly expressed the love I felt for my her. "Father's Love" and "Little Boy Blue" brought tears to my eyes, they were so beautiful. I know I'm a father now when I have "Swedish Lullaby" running through my head all day! I'm not a fan of religious music, but most of this CD is simply beautiful music and soothing melodies -- a big improvement over some children's music I've heard. I plan on asking for the first volume of this collection for Christmas.
