"The Prayer" is written by David Foster, whose amazing protege Josh Groban has also recorded this song with Charlotte Church.
David's wife Linda Thompson writes lyrics and has written about faith in other songs such as To Where You Are sung by Josh Groban. If you haven't heard of Josh Groban you missing out!

Lyrics:
To Where You Are
Music: Richard Marx
Lyrics: Linda Thompson

Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memories so clear

Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be
That you are mine
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are mine
Forever love
Watching me from up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave

Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

It is surprising whith Foster's ties to liberals like Streisand.

Wrong prayer. The correct one starts with:

I pray you'll be our eyes and watch us where we go. And help us to be wise in times when we don't know. Let this be our prayer when we lose our way...

To hear a portion of it from her duet with Andrea Bocelli on the Songo album, go to this page on Amazon, scroll down to "Listen to Samples" and select the clip.

Brings tears to my eyes the song is so beautiful.

Josh Groban is truly an amazing vocal artist. :o)

[Uncle Kermie]

The word "God" doesn't appear in the lyrics at all.

I have that CD of Josh Groban too.....I love his voice and this song........ I think he does a much better job of it than Celine...........

The Prayer sung by Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion

I pray you’ll be alright
and watch us where we go
and help us to be wise
in times when we don’t know
and let this be our prayer
when we loose our way
lead us to a place
guide us with your grace
to a place were we’ll be safe

i pray we’ll find your light
and hold it in our palm

when stars go on each night

let this be our quest

lead us to a place
guide us with your grace
give us faith so we’ll be safe.
