Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey Lord, take a look all around
And I'd a-find where my baby's gonna be
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight?
'Cause she is far across the sea
[Verse 2]
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight
And make sure that she's gonna be alright
And things are gonna be alright with me?
[Verse 3]
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight
And make sure all her dreams are sweet?
Said now, would you guide her on the roads
And make them softer for her feet?
[Verse 4]
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight
And make sure that she's gonna be alright
Until she's home and here with me?
[Verse 5]
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight
If she is sleepin' under the sky?
Said now, make sure the ground
She's sleepin' on, is always warm and dry?
[Verse 6]
Hmm, don't you give her too much rain
Try to keep her away from pain
Because my baby hates to cry
[Verse 7]
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight?
'Cause it gets rough along the way
Said now, this song seems strange
It's just because, I don't know how to pray
[Verse 8]
Hmm, won't give her piece of mind
And if I ever find the time
Won't you tell her I miss her everyday?
[Verse 9]
Hey Lord, take a look all around
And I'd a-find where my baby's gonna be, yeah
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight?
'Cause she is far across the sea
[Verse 10]
Hey Lord, would you look out for her tonight
And make sure that she's gonna be alright
Until she's home and here with me?
With me
