God of mercy, here I cry Turn Your hand tonight Bring relief from their pain Be their comfort And every day they're given breath Give them strength to live And as their weary bodies fail Fighting is over, flesh gives way Be their light to guide them home God of mercy, here I cry Heal their souls tonight Give them peace from their fears Be their hope, Lord And every day You give them breath Give them strength to live And as their weary bodies fail Fighting is over, flesh gives way Be their star to guide them home Sometimes I don't know what to ask for Sometimes I don't know what to say But I know that You are watching over them Sometimes I don't know what to pray for Sometimes I don't know how to give But I know that You are watching over them And their life is not in vain So God of mercy, here I cry Turn your hand tonight Bring relieve from their pain Be their comfort And every day they're given breath Give them strength to live And as their weary bodies fail Fighting is over, flesh gives way Be their light to guide them home
