Hear the silence of the night, and the whispers of the day,
as they lead me to the light, and they show me how to pray.
Hear the pounding of my heart, feel the anguish in my soul,
help me make a brand new start, to find a life that is whole.
Come and take me in your arms,
come and show me that you care,
come and soothe me with your charms,
and breathe the love within the air.
Hear the music all around, as it beckons us to stay,
just to listen to the sound, of children laughing as they play.
Hear the stillness of the day, and the quiet of the night,
as we search to find our way, from the darkness to the light.
