Lyrics for The Prayer
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
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe.
I pray we'll find your light
I pray we'll find your light
And hold it in our hearts
And hold it in our hearts
When stars go out each night
Stars go out each night
Remind us where you are.
Remind us where you are.
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
When shadows fill our day
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe.
A world where pain and sorrow will be ended
And every heart that's broken will be mended
And we'll remember we are all God's children
Reaching out to touch you
Reaching to the sky.
We ask that life be kind
We ask that life be kind
And watch us from above
And watch us from above
We hope each soul will find
We hope each soul will find
Another soul to love
Another soul to love.
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child.
Just like every child.
Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace.
Give us faith so we'll be safe

To be honest, I was pretty jealous of your voice, and then I corrected my thought process. Instead of being jealous, I became greatful. Greatful there ever was and is a beautiful voice like yours in the world. You are blessed to have been given it! Keep singing!

Lexi, only once or twice in a lifetime does God grace this earth with someone like you. You've got to be the most underrated talent out there right now. Disney would be crazy not to approach you. You are the essence of beauty and grace. Thank you for putting yourself out there and blessing our lives.

Wow, Lexi is maturing and her voice just keeps getting better. And better than many child prodigy singers, she sings with natural maturity, not a forced or artificial one. Wonderful singer. Jenny Oaks Baker = daughter of Dallin H. Oaks. She's one of my favorite artists, plays with the Spirit and what a great musical family she raised. Kurt Bestor, one of the best arrangers in the business. Arrangers make or break musicians' success.

They slam Celine Dion's rendition of this despite Celine being accompanied by Andrea Bocelli. This is an amazing piece. How it escaped my notice for so long is unknown. I have of no idea of who the Instrumentalist is here though highly suspect Kurt is the culprit on that one. Just a magnificent piece of music. This one will only sound better through the ages. This one will without a doubt will outlive its creators. Slow off the launch pad but still rising. We'll see. I have nothing but the highest expectations of this gorgeous piece.

Gosh, Lexi, I saw One Voice Children's Choir on Britain's Got Talent (couple years ago, LOL) and I asked my friend "who is that sassy little red head? She has a huge pair of pipes." I had to go discover OVCC and listened many times over every song I could find. And, in doing so, I watched you all grow up. But you, Lexi, always held a special place in our family's hearts. I Love This Song! Your voice has grown more powerful and beautiful by the year. I know you sang this song nearly 3 years ago but your voice is "priceless" and I could, and do, listen to you often and nearly every day. Thank You Lexi, for allowing us to follow along in your career. God Bless. T

It seems as if this song is always performed as a duet. (Bocelli is a serial duet-tist when it comes to "The Prayer"). So it's great to hear "The Prayer" sung simply and with such great feeling by Lexi. No singing partner needed this time- not that anyone could keep up with her!

Have you ever had a crumby day when nothing is right and bad news piled on top made you break down in a crying fit. I had one of those, the other day. Nothing could calm me. Everything felt just wrong (and some still IS wrong) and the world didn't make sense. Papa put me on my bed and played this on repeat, sat next to me and rubbed my back and spoke to me in Gaelic. It was the only thing that worked even if it was just a little. Thank you, Miss Walker. If I ever get home, the first thing I'm going to do is find out when your next show is. I really wanted to see you in "wizard of OZ"... Unless you plan on touring New England.

Lexxi, I am so thrilled to hear that you are retaining the sweetness of your vocal timbre without sacrificing it to the pyrotechnics of the pop-genre. I am thankful for the choices that it appears you are making to retain the humble purity of your vocal gift, one that enables you to bless everyone as you sing His praises for His children. Happy Christmas, Lexxi!
