Written by Kirk Kiefer

lyrics

It's the nights that I most fear
Wide awake with no one near
I just want a little hope before I reach the end of my rope
May the lord grant me peace

The days are starting to wear
In the wrinkles on my face in the gray in my hair
Why I can't I take a rest from so much unhappiness
May the lord grant me peace

May the lord grant me peace
May he reach out and touch my hand
Tell me I'm doing right by him
And this is all a part of his plan

I'm doing the best I can
But some things are just too hard for one man
But I can carry on with his strength to draw upon
May the lord grant me peace
May the lord grant me peace
May the lord grant me peace
