Analysis of I pray to you my lord

Cynthia novotny 1984 (Wilmington de)



She always walks in silence
She doesn’t know what to do
I thought she had it all
But now it feels she has none

So I call on you lord
Please help me lord through this
Always guide me up to the light
That’s where I truly belong

I know you hear me when I call
For I know your my protector
I know I can always count on you
For you find me when I feel lost

I just hope one day I find my peace
I pray that one day I find courage
I want to live like you my lord
I want to be all in one
