Open the Gates of Heaven to me Tonight I need salvation Open the doors of your sanctuary Deliver me from damnation Open the Gates of Heaven to me Spread angels' wings over my head This word is full of demons And the innocent are easily lead Do you see me when I'm lying awake? Oh, do you hear my voice when I pray? If you can hear me This is my prayer for winter Reach out and heal me I am the true believer If you can hear me This is my prayer for mercy I'm collapsing to my knees Won't you shelter me? Open the Gates of Heaven to me And shower me in your light We've drifted so far from Eden Please return me to what is right Oh, open the Gates of Heaven to me Take my stained hands and make them clean Light of the world, you're an only child Won't you show me where you've been? Do you see me when I'm lying awake? Oh, do you hear my voice when I pray? If you can hear me This is my prayer for winter Reach out and heal me I am the true believer If you can hear me This is my prayer for mercy I'm collapsing to my knees Won't you shelter me? Won't you shelter me? This is the third time I've opened this book with trembling fingers Most of the time it shows me things I don't want to see And I worry that maybe it's something else that's guiding me The wrong something else And I I feel so desperate for some sort of clarity So if I do this again If I really take that chance I need to know that you'll show me what I need to see God save them And God please Save me
