“Guide Us Home" Stories That Heal: Jim's Song Bonus Track

“Guide Us Home” Written by Jim Sheets, Molly Sturges and Tim Jones.

Sung by Tim Jones with instrumentals by Stonefolk.

Guide Us Home

Lord you bless me
With so much grace
A life of purpose
On every page
I’ve been a teacher
I’ve been a friend,
I’ll be a father
until the end
All I ask when
When I leave this earth
Take my wishes,
hear my words

May every child have the love that they need
May everyone be warm and safe when they sleep
May the everloving light surround us
guide us home with grace and forgiveness
and never ever ever leave…

Lord I’m grateful
For all you give me
The land, the people,
The stars in the sky
I am a servant
for the future
I stay busy
with the children
In mind

Every morning
Every sunset
There’s a silent prayer
I said my whole life…

May every child have the love that the need
May everyone be warm and safe when they sleep
May the everloving light surround us
guide us home with grace and forgiveness
and never ever ever leave…

I give thanks for this day lord
For the bluebirds returning
The rye & the clover are rising
What more could I give?
What more could I need?

May every child have the love that the need
May everyone be warm and safe when they sleep
May the everloving light surround us
guide us home with grace and forgiveness
and never ever ever leave…
and never ever ever leave…
and never ever ever leave…
and never ever ever leave…
