Lead me home to your waters where comfort waits for me Take my soul, forgiving Father And cradle the hearts of those who grieve Wipe away the anger and hatred from the world we once knew May your peace of heart Be a blanket May our lives begin anew. Hearts that have been broken Lives that have been torn What can never be forgotten Is now a legacy we face this morn The madness of a moment Can never be erased And the devastation that remains Is shadowed with disgrace Please hold your children as we pray for tomorrow We are all as one As we struggle in a world encased in sorrow ↗
