Analysis of Watch over me
Watch over me
My whole life through
Keep me safe
In all I do
Brilliance
Radiates from you
Magnificence
Angelic hue
Slow my heart
To elevated love
Peace be with you
God above
Be in me
What you are made of
Tranquil hands
Pour out your doves
Tokens unused
Your gift to me
Almighty Grace
Powers that be
Sweet innocence
Intention of Glory
Fertile fates
Open pathways for me
Truth eloquent
Bosom my call
Leave me not
To fear or fall
