When I Close My Eyes
When I close my eyes
I can see a rainbow
The colours all dance
Like a beautiful halo
No longer walls
Between one or the other
And Love is just a prayer away
When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes
I see no more abortions
No more violence to the voiceless children
Big or small, every life has a reason
The Truth is just a prayer away
When I close my eyes
Banish all our blindness
You are the only way
Strength in all our weakness
Break these chains
See the saints and angels praying as we bleed
Through the eyes of faith
Lord, I do believe
(instrumental solo)
Banish all our blindness
You are the only way
Strength in all our weakness
Break these chains
See the saints and angels crying as we bleed
Through the eyes of faith
Lord, I do believe
That when I close my eyes
I can see you smiling
You're free as a bird
And you're laughing and dancing
No longer chained
By the burdens that held you
I know you're just a prayer away
When I close my eyes.
