God on high, hear my prayer, In my need, you have always been there. He is young, he's afraid, Let him rest, heaven blessed. Bring him home, bring him home, bring him home. He's like the son I might have known, If God had granted me a son. As farmers die one by one, Oh, so they fly on and on, And I am old and will be gone. Bring him peace, bring him joy, He is young, he is only a boy. You can take, you can give, Let him be, let him live. If I die, let me die, Let him live, bring him home, Bring him home, bring him home. You can take, you can give, Let him live, bring him home, Bring him home, bring him home, Let him live, bring him home.
