Tonight, week 5 in teh home MTC, on a break you were playinjg the piano downstairs and you chose this song. I sat up at my desk andsobbed. I think I'd been holding back some pent up emotions about your soon to be departure and it came out like the flood gates were suddenly released. You played the song so so beautifully and it broke my heart. How will I let you go?
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 a place,
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we’ll be safe
La luce che
tu dai (the
light that you give)
I pray we’ll find your light
Nel cuore resterà (In my heart it will remain)
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che (To remind us that)
When stars go out each night
L’eterna stella sei (You are the eternal star)
Nella mia preghiera (In my prayers)
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c’è (How much faith there is)
When shadows
fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
La forza che
ci dai (The
strength you give us)
We ask that life be kind
È il desiderio che (And the desire that)
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amor (Everyone will find love)
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a sè (Around and inside themselves)
Another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Need to find a
place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we’ll be safe
E la fede che (And the faith that)
Hai acceso in noi (You have ignited within us)
Sento che ci salverá (I feel that it will save all of us)
Celine’s version, a mother’s prayer… (which is
the way I hear it when it play…,)
I pray you'll be my
eyes
And watch her where she goes
And help her to be wise
Help me to let go
Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Lead her to a place
Guide her with your grace
To a place where she'll be safe
I pray she finds your light
And holds it in her heart
As darkness falls each night
Remind her where you are
Every mother's prayer
Every child knows
Need to find a place
Guide her with your grace
Give her faith so she'll be safe
Lead her to a place
