A Place On The Earth

Fernando Ortega


Find me a place on the earth 
Where a weary man can rest 
And listen for your voice 
In the turning seasons 

A quiet place in the world 
Where I can bow 
And confess that I fear 
Where you have brought me, 
Mysterious God 

All of my life 
You have been with me 
My comfort in loneliness 
My hope in the dark 
All of my life 
Lord, please stay with me 
Be my sustaining breath 
Guardian of my heart 

My days are passing by 
Like falling stars 
That blaze across the night sky 
Then they are gone 

But Father, at your side 
I will never be afraid 
For you have held all my days 
In the palm of your hand 

All of my life 
You have been with me 
My comfort in loneliness 
My hope in the dark 
All of my life 
Lord, please stay with me 
Be my sustaining breath 
Guardian of my heart 

All of my life 
You have been with me 
My comfort in loneliness 
My hope in the dark 
All of my life 
Lord, please stay with me 
Be my sustaining breath 
Guardian of my heart 

Be my sustaining breath 
Guardian of my heart 

Be my sustaining breath 
Be my sustaining breath 
Be my sustaining breath
