in times when we don’t (Eb)know.

Let this be our (Gm)prayer,

when we lose our (A7sus)way.

(Dm)Lead us to a (Bb)place,

(Dm)guide us with your (Am)grace

(Bb)to a place where (F)we’ll (C)be (Bb)safe.

La lu ce che tu (Bb)dai, (I pray we’ll find your (C)light,) nel cuo re res te (F)rà.

(and hold it in our (F)hearts) A ri cor dar ci (Bb)che (when stars go out each (C)night,) l’e ter na stel la (Eb)sei.
