PlanetShakers' rendition of "The Prayer" is a heartfelt worship piece that blends English and Italian lyrics to express a deep longing for divine guidance, protection, and grace. The song, originally a duet by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli, is reimagined here as a prayer for wisdom, safety, and faith in uncertain times. It also envisions a world free from violence, filled with justice, hope, and brotherly love. The recurring plea for God's grace and faith underscores a trust in His care, making it a fitting addition to Christmas worship, as it reflects the hope and peace brought by Christ's birth.

I pray you'll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
In times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer
As we go our way
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your Grace
To a place where we'll be safe
La luce che tu hai
I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore resterà
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che
When stars go out each night
Eterna stella sei
Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'è
When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
Sogniamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno dia la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace, di fraternità
La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind
E'il desiderio che
And watch us from above
Ognuno trovi amore
We hope each soul will find
Intorno e dentro a se
Another soul to love
Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer
Just like every child
Just like every child
Needs to find a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe
E la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salvera
