Whenever I Pray - Malcolm Holcombe

There’s a sound in the distance i know all too well

And the voices inside me my heart cannot tell

The singin' i long for has been taken from me

Unspoken mem’ries forever will be

Way up on a hill still callin' my name

Inside a tower so steady it sways

It’s a ringin' for mothers and children who dwell

In a home full o' love 'neath that ol' mission bell

Now the night passes slowly and the mornin' comes soon

And i should be a sleepin' beside only you

But my head lays heavy in the choices i made

May God keep you close to him whenever i pray
