Tonight I pray

Tonight I pray for him and me,
and all I wish for us to be.
That we can walk side by side,
on golden paths of glowing pride.

Tonight I pray for his loving arms,
that hold and shield me from all harm.
He lifts me up when I am weak,
and as tears fall down he wipes my cheek.

Tonight I pray this bond is broken,
and into my ear his words are spoken.
Without his love I won't survive,
so I sit, and ponder, and eagerly strive.

Tonight I pray to see his face,
for my soul to feel his burning grace.
To see his eyes as they truly are,
and gaze with him at skies of stars.

This man I seek is like no other.
He was born unto a virgin mother.
See it is not, now, my past I crave,
but God's righteous hands to come and save.
