Saint Christopher Lyrics

My parents trust in God

When the way forward isn't clear

But I never trusted anything

I couldn't see or hear

So I took the road I wanted to

And I made my own mistakes

And they prayed to every saint they knew

That I would find my way

Holy Saint Anthony

The gentlest of saints

His heart was ever full

Of human sympathy they say

And if you're asking for a miracle

These words will never fail

But my parents never sent a prayer

That I could not derail

Oh glorious Saint Christopher

Can you hear me calling you

Hail Mary full of grace

You pray for all our sins

But I don't know where to start

To ask for mercy in the end

But my mother and my father

Always found the words to say

For the son who never listened

And then disappeared one day

Oh glorious Saint Christopher

Can you hear me calling you

Oh glorious Saint Christopher

Can you hear me calling you

Saint Agatha of Sicily

Where were you on that day

When my parents who have faith in you

I tried to put my faith in you

My sister who had faith in you

Slowly slipped away

I don't know Saint Christopher

I've never seen his face

But I prayed just like you taught me

So he'd guide me on my way

And I don't know that he listened

But I know this much is true

I didn't need Saint Christopher

I always needed you

You were my Saint Christopher

I only needed you

Oh glorious
