When I'm down when my soul's in need of rest Come your words of comfort and of hope I see your face always smiling back at me A stream of light shining straight to the heart Child of God, child of light There'll be no more lonely nights Cause you have brightened up my life There's a road that leads me to this place A path of love running straight to the heart Over the years I've learned one important thing It's that real friends shall never truly be apart You were there in my darkest time of need With a hand reaching straight to the heart Child of God child of light There'll be no more lonely nights Cause you have brightened up my life Take this gift it is all I have to give A prayer of love forever straight to the heart A prayer of love forever straight to the heart
