Hey, Lord, take a look all around
And I'd a-find where my baby's gonna be
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
'Cause she is far across the sea
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
And make sure that she's gonna be alright
And things are gonna be alright with me
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
And make sure that all her dreams are sweet
Said now, would ya guide her on the roads
And make them softer for her feet
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
And make sure that she's gonna be alright
Until she's home and here with me
Hey, Lord would ya look out for her tonight
If she is sleeping under the sky
Said now, make sure the ground she's sleeping on
Is always warm and dry
Um mm, don't you give her too much rain
Try to keep her away from pain
Because my baby hates to cry
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
'Cause it gets rough along the way
Said now, this song seems strange is just because
I don't know how to pray
Um mm, won't you give her peace of mind
And if you ever find the time
Won't you tell her I miss her everyday
Hey, Lord, take a look all around
And I'd a-find where my baby's gonna be
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
'Cause she is far across the sea
Hey, Lord, would ya look out for her tonight
And make sure that she's gonna be alright
Until she's home and here with me
With me
