When I Close My Eyes

When I close my eyes

I can see a rainbow

The colours all dance

Like a beautiful halo

No longer walls

Between one or the other

And Love is just a prayer away

When I close my eyes

When I close my eyes

I see no more abortions

No more violence to the voiceless children

Big or small every life has a reason

The Truth is just a prayer away

When I close my eyes

Banish all our blindness

You are the only way

Strength in all our weakness

Break these chains

See the saints and angels praying as we bleed

Through the eyes of faith

Lord I do believe

Banish all our blindness

You are the only way

Strength in all our weakness

Break these chains

See the saints and angels crying as we bleed

Through the eyes of faith

Lord I do believe

That when I close my eyes

I can see you smiling

You ' re free as a bird

And you ' re laughing and dancing

No longer chained

By the burdens that held you

I know you ' re just a prayer away

When I close my eyes
