Lyrics[]

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,
As we go our way
Lead us to a place,
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe

I pray you'll find your light
And hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night,
Remind us where you are

Let this be our prayer,
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

We ask that life be kind
And watch us from above
We hope each soul will find
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer,
Just like every child
Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be
Safe…
