Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And every moment I'm awake
I pray the Lord my soul to take

Now as I walk down this winding road,
I need you to lighten the load
Hey, now, take my hand,
I'll lead you to the Promised Land

One cold December,
So long ago,
We watched the snow cling to the trees

Your lips were so warm
As you kissed my hand
We would have sailed the seven seas

But when you walked away,
Said you could not stay,
And love lay dying like a wounded dove

But if you come back now,
I will take your hand
And lead you to the Promised Land

Are you feeling lonely?
Do you need a friend?
Well, is the pain too much to stand?

The seeds of love
Are sown inside
And the memories of our lives will guide our hand

So as you fly away
I will sing the day
And meet you in the Promised Land
Take my hand to the Promised Land

But when you walked away,
Said you could not stay,
And love lay bleeding like a wounded dove

But if it needs to be
Then I will set you free
And meet you in the Promised Land
Take my hand to the Promised Land

Now I lay me down to sleep,
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And every moment I'm awake
I pray the Lord your soul to take
