Dear Lord, who blesses us with love,
Please send this day thy Spirit from above.
As this thy son accepts a call from thee,
Help him, we pray, to learn humility.
Direct his footsteps everyday
And keep him ever walking in thy way
Inspire him as he spreads the Gospel plan
Lord hold him in the hollow of thy hand
In the hollow of thy hand
As he grows from boy to man
Help his understanding deepen and increase
In the hollow of thy hand
As he grows from boy to man
Let him know the special blessing of thy peace
Dear Lord who hears and answers prayers
Please keep thy servant always in thy care
As he prepares to teach his fellow man
Oh keep him safe and bring him home again
Protect him from all worldly ways
And always send thy Spirit when he prays
Give him the courage of a righteous man
Just hold him in the hollow of thy hand
In the hollow of thy hand
As he grows from boy to man
Help his understanding deepen and increase
In the hollow of thy hand
As he grows from boy to man
Let him know the special blessing of thy peace
In the hollow of thy hand
As he grows from boy to man
Help his understanding deepen and increase
As he faces life's demands
May he take a valiant stand
Give him shelter in the hollow of thy hand
