The Prayer

The other day while I was working on my thesis, I decided to browse through my new collection of mp3's (courtesy of my honey). So I put on the headphones and started Media Player. After looking through the playlist, I absent-mindedly clicked Josh Groban's The Prayer. Although I have heard the song a million times, I have not realized how beautiful it really is. Charlotte Church's voice was perfect and of course, so was Josh Groban's. For the first time, I saw myself walking down the aisle and, in my mind, I saw Jojie waiting for me at the altar. The image was very vivid. I could even see how his eyes were lit up by his smile. It was enough to make me teary-eyed.

For the first time, too, I realized that I am getting married... I am actually getting married! In four months, I am going to be with Jojie whom I love so much and who loves me, too, very much. I am very blessed.

The Prayer

I pray you'll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don't know

Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your Grace
To a place where we'll be safe
La luce che to dai

I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore restero
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarchi che
When stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'e
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace

Give us faith so we'll be safe.
Sognamo un mondo senza piu violenza

Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternita

La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E'il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a se
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child

Needs to find a place,
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera
