Jan R Johansson - Prayer For The Lonely Lyrics

In the silence of my room I hear the echo of my sighs
The weight of empty evenings as the sun says its goodbyes.
I walk these streets alone searching for a friendly face
But all I see are shadows as I yearn for your embrace.

Each day blends into night and night into the dawn
I've been chasing fleeting dreams but now those dreams are gone.
The world feels cold and distant like a stranger in my soul
I'm reaching out to heaven for a hand to make me whole.

Lord I'm calling out to you with a heart that's torn in two
Can you hear me in the dark? Will you guide me lead me through?

This is my prayer for the lonely a cry into the night
Give me hope give me strength to find the light.
I'm holding on to faith in the midst of my despair
This is my prayer Lord hear my prayer.

I see lovers in the park holding hands with easy grace
But I'm left with empty pockets And the memory of an unknown face
I've built walls to hide the pain but those walls are closing in
I'm searching for a sign for where my new life can begin.

I'm on my knees and praying for the day you'll set me free
From the chains of isolation from this dark lonely sea.

This is my prayer for the lonely a cry into the night
Give me hope give me strength to find the light.
I'm holding on to faith in the midst of my despair
This is my prayer Lord hear my prayer.

Let your love be the answer let your light be my guide
In the stillness of this moment I surrender all my pride.
This is my prayer for the lonely Lord walk by my side.
