The Prayer

I pray you'll be our eyes,

and watch us where we go.

And help us to be wise

in times when we don't know

Let this be our prayer,

when we lose our way

Lead us to the place,

guide us with your grace

To a place where we'll be safe

I pray we'll find your light

and hold it in our hearts.

When stars go out each night,

The light you have

I pray we'll find your light

will be in the heart

and hold it in our hearts.

to remember us that

When stars go out each night,

you are eternal star

Let this be our prayer

when shadows fill our day

How much faith there's

Let this be our prayer

in my prayer

when shadows fill our day

Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe
