Hold me close when your heart is praying,
I am here, and I am staying.
When the night has stolen your smile,
I will hold you all the while.
No need for words, I feel you near,
beyond your doubt, beyond your fear.
Lay your head down,
leave your sorrow,
in my arms you'll find tomorrow.
Your tears I gather on your way,
and turn them into gentle day.
Close your eyes and breathe with me,
I am your always, your eternity.
And in this embrace you'll cease to roam,
I'm the steady light that calls you Home.
