Rachel:
Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home...
Rachel mit Finn und New Directions:
When you call my name, it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour, I can feel your power
Just like a prayer, you know I'll take you there
Finn:
I hear your voice
It's like an angel sighing
Kurt:
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
Mercedes:
I close my eyes
Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me

When you call my name, it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there

I'm like a child
You whisper softly to me

You're in control, just like a child
Now I'm dancing

It's like a dream
No end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream

Let the choir sing,
Oohhhhh

When you call my name
It's like a little prayer

Just like a prayer
You know I'll take you there
Ohh, Ohhh
Ohh, Ohhh
