I pray you'll be our eyesI ask that you will be our guide and help us see what we cannot see
And watch us where we goAnd protect us as we travel through life's unknown paths
And help us to be wiseAnd grant us wisdom when we are unsure of what to do
In times when we don't knowEspecially when we are ignorant and confused about the world
Let this be our prayerMay our words resonate with you and express our deepest hopes
When we lose our wayWhen we get lost in the chaos and distractions around us
Lead us to a placeGuide us to a destination that is safe and fulfilling
Guide us with your graceShine your light on us and show us the way with your mercy
To a place where we'll be safeA place of security and free from danger and harm
I pray we'll find your lightI ask that we discover your presence and feel your love and grace
(I pray we'll find your light)
And hold it in our heartsAnd cherish and nurture the spirit within us
(And hold it in our hearts)
When stars go out each nightWhen darkness falls and hope seems to vanish
(Stars go out each night)
Remind us where you areHelp us remember that you are always with us, even in our darkest moments
(Remind us where you are)
Let this be our prayerMay our words remain a prayer that is both humble and sincere
(Let this be our prayer)
When shadows fill our dayWhen the burdens and struggles of life overwhelm us
(When shadows fill our day)
Oh, Lord, lead us to a placePlease show us mercy and lead us to a better path
(Guide us with your grace)
Guide us with your graceMay your mercy guide us and light our way
Give us faith so we'll be safeGrant us strength, courage, and faith so that we may find safety and security
A world where pain and sorrow will be endedMay the world be free from suffering and despair
And every heart that's broken will be mendedMay those who are hurting find healing and peace
And we'll remember we are all God's childrenMay we recognize that we are all equal and beloved by God
Reaching out to touch youMay we strive to connect with God and feel His presence
Reaching to the skyAnd may our prayers and hopes rise up towards the heavens
We ask that life be kindMay our lives be gentle, pleasant, and full of goodness
(We ask that life be kind)
And watch us from aboveMay God guide us from the heavens and keep us safe in His embrace
(And watch us from above)
We hope each soul will findMay every individual discover and experience
(We hope each soul will find)
Another soul to loveAnother person to love and cherish in their life's journey
(Another soul to love)
Just like every childLike every child who seeks a parent's loving guidance
(Just like every child)
Needs to find a placeIt is important for us to find a sense of belonging and purpose in our lives
Guide us with your graceMay God's mercy and love be our guiding light
Give us faith so we'll be safeMay we be granted the strength and faith to find safety and peace in our lives
