Dedicated to all the rescuer's around the world who are making a difference to the lives of unwanted and neglected animals.
Lyrics
'Rescuer's Prayer'
Oh that I could spare your pain
And tell the world how beautiful you are to me
I see your eyes through cloud and rain
Your spirit is a light beyond the cruelty
You trust in the ones that confine you
You love when the hurt has downed you
Oh if only dreams came true
Oh if only I could save you
Gentle is your heart so near
Broken in a world that never knew your name
I will hold your memory dear
Burning in my soul a precious candle flame
We rescue the ones we believe in
We care ever more in our grieving
Parting is our sorrow's work
Dear Lord make their voices heard...
Oh that I could spare your pain
And tell the world how beautiful you are to me...
