I count the broken roads I had to tread
The empty places where I laid my head
But looking back across the shifting sand
I see the guiding
of a quiet hand
Around the family table,
voices rise
Keeping the light alive in weary eyes
And every faithful word that kept me whole
Is written deep within my grateful soul (mmmmm)
This is my prayer of peace,
my song of grace
A quiet light upon a weathered face Thank you for holding on
when hope was thin
And letting all the wider world begin
Now all the walls are turning into sky
The heavy shadows taking wing to fly
Oh, thank you Lord
for your saving grace
Thank you Lord, in this quiet place (thank you Lord)
This is my prayer of peace,
my song of grace
A quiet light upon
a weathered face Thank you for holding on
when hope was thin
And letting all the wider world begin (hallelujah)
Letting the wider world
begin
(oh,
thank you)
