Father, give me strength
I pray this prayer each day
Father, take my hand
And help me to escape

Darkness surrounds
And heartache abounds
Stuck in a haunted dream
No audible voice to scream

Malevolent human race
Poverty slowly increasing
Every night I cry and pray
For miraculous healing

Heal the land and the hearts
The stony hearts of man
Teach us all compassion
Never let go of my hand

Father, give me hope
And the tools I need to cope
With the things I can't control
Only you can make me whole
