In My Prayers

As you make your way
through a fog of tears,
a landslide of heartache
and multiple fears,

I'll remember you
in my prayers



While God holds you safe
in the palm of His hand
and sends His angels
to help you stand,

I'll remember you
in my prayers



Each minute you long
for peace and rest,
courageously fighting
this willful test,

I'll remember you
in my prayers



When a ray of hope
pierces the night
and your faith is renewed
by the heavenly sight,

I'll drop to my knees
and thank the Lord
for the grace of prayer
and your spirit restored
