A Child Prays On Christmas Eve

A child prays on Christmas Eve,
Her faith is strong - she still believes.
But within her reach are the tears she keeps
For those at war who bleed for peace.

She whispers softly, so Lord of mine
I pray to you for all mankind.
Look through the eyes of those who hide
And let them feel the touch of Christ.

And she prays that her words will be heard for the people,
Everyone and everywhere.
And she prays that her words will be heard for the people,
Anyone who needs a prayer.

Cos her faith is strong - she still believes,
A place exists where all are free,
Where the lonely meet and the hungry eat
And the blind can watch their children sleep.

She prays that her words will be heard for the people,
Everyone and everywhere.
And she prays that her words will be heard for the people,
Anyone who needs a prayer.

Anyone who needs a prayer
