I see You are merciful
I see You are kind
I see You are full of love that is far beyond my mind

I hope for strength to stand
I hope to be the man that I should be
I hope that You will embrace these little ones in spite of me

So I'm praying for the perfect world
Praying for the perfect

I fear for what I will say
I fear for things that I have said
I fear I'll close my eyes and trip on what is ahead

I know I need to trust
I know I need to reach
I know I need to believe in what I cannot always see

So I'm praying for the perfect world
Praying for the perfect

World where the darkest days are like the brightest skies
World where we look through the eyes of a little boy and girl
World where the darkest days are like the brightest skies
World where we walk in the faith of a little boy and girl

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way.
