Lyrics

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
