Prayer
Dion Celine/Bocelli Andrea Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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
La luce che tu hai
(I pray we'll find your light)
Nel cuore resterà
(And hold it in our hearts)
A ricordarci che
(When stars go out each night)
Eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
(Let this be our prayer)
Quanta fede c'è
(When shadows fill our day)

Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Sogniamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, di fraternità
La forza che ci dà

(We ask that life be kind)
È il desiderio che
(And watch us from above)
Ognuno trovi amor
(We hope each soul will find)
Intorno e dentro sé
(Another soul to love)

Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child
Need to find a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
È la fede che




Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salverà

Overall Meaning

The Prayer is a heartfelt duet between Dion Celine and Bocelli Andrea that speaks to the power of prayer and faith in the face of uncertainty. The song begins with a plea for guidance and wisdom, asking for a higher power to watch over the singers and keep them safe as they journey through life. It acknowledges the fact that we all have moments of doubt and confusion, and that we need support and direction at these times. The chorus is a repeated prayer for the same thing - that the singers will be led to a place of safety and that their faith will keep them strong.


The verses of The Prayer are sung in both English and Italian, which adds to the universal, timeless quality of the song. The Italian verse speaks to the same themes as the English ones, with a focus on the power of a single light to guide and comfort us. The second half of the song focuses on a dream of a world without violence, where people can come together in peace and unity. It is a hopeful message that reminds us that we all need love and connection in order to thrive.

Stiff-person syndrome there is no cure. Treatment has little success I watched a few videos on YT made by other people who have it. Most say they hate the name stiff-person syndrome I agree think doctors could come up with a better name.

Dear God, please watch over us through these perilous times. Show mercy and grace on our souls. For this time we are in the fight for our souls. In Christ Jesus name I pray.
