Sweet Lord, oh, dearest Lord,                                                                                

Please hear my earnest prayer:

Keep safe my loved ones as they sleep.

Keep them in Your care.

 

The world can be a scary place,

Full of so much darkness.

Bring them out into Your light

And fill them with Your kindness.

 

Give them strength to be true,

To the values they hold dear.

God will always be close by,

To take away each fear.

 

We shall one day overcome

The gulf that death imparts.

For God’s love conquers all

When He lives in our hearts.
