«Silent prayer»

Tekst: Sølve Styve Etnestad Musikk: Sølve Styve Etnestad

The doors are closed and there´s no place to stay
The wall reminds us still today
A measly stable´s everything there´s left
And soon my Mary needs to take a rest

Wonder who this boy is meant to be
When Gabriel is guiding me

Wonder if I ever will see
what your love means to me
Let me take part in you plan
Wondering why you chose me
I have no sword or shield
My only armor is love

A starlit night, a wonder is in sight
The star is leading way
My son is born, or is it only hers?
Will Mary love me after birth?

Wonder who these wise men came to see,
What are their expectations of me?

Wonder if I ever will see
what your love means to me
Let me take part in you plan
Wondering why you chose me
I have no sword or shield
My only armor is love

My son is born but no one knows it yet
With him the world will be reborn
A silent prayer, the least thing we can do
When he is with both me and you

Wonder if my son one day will be
This great love I see

Wonder if I ever will see
what your love means to me
Let me take part in you plan
Wondering why you chose me
I have no sword or shield
My only armor is love
Is love
You did choose me
I have no sword or shield
My only armor is love

The doors are closed and there´s no place to stay
The wall reminds us still today
