The Prayer 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, when we lose our way
Lead us to the place, guide us with your grace;
To a place so we'll be safe

La luce che tu hai
Nel cuore restera
A ricordarci che
Eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera;
Quanta fede c'e

Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place so we'll be safe

Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, di fraternita

La forza che ci da
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

E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera
