There's a ship out,
on the ocean
At the mercy of the sea
It's been tossed about,
lost and broken
Wandering aimlessly
And God somehow
you know that ship is me
'Cause there's a lighthouse,
in the harbor
Shining faithfully
Pouring its light out,
across the water
For this sinking soul to see
That someone out there
still believes in me
On a prayer, in a song
I hear your voice
and it keeps me hanging on
Raining down, against the wind
I'm reaching out
'til we reach the circle's end
When you come back to me again
There's a moment
we all come to
In our own time
and our own space
Where all that we've done,
we can undo
If our heart's
in the right place
On a prayer, in a song
I hear your voice
and it keeps me hanging on
Raining down, against the wind
I'm reaching out
'til we reach the circle's end
When you come back to me again
And again I see
my yesterday's in front of me
Unfolding like a mystery
You're changing all
that is and used to be
On a prayer, in a song
I hear your voice
and it keeps me hanging on
Raining down, against the wind
I'm reaching out
'til we reach the circle's end
When you come back to me again
