Father
Father, oh Father, hear me if you can
Is it true what they say that life is a dream?
I don't understand the things that make rain in my eyes
Are they real or are they lies?
You know I hear so much about you now
I'd give anything to go on a little boat with you
Talk about the scheme of things
On a little boat with you
Father, oh Father, guide me if you can
Or give me the chance to follow You home
I am Your son but I wish I knew you
When you were young were you lonely as a boy?
You know I'd give so much to see you now
I'd go anywhere, pick a little stick and walk with you
Talk about the scheme of things
On a short walk with you
Father, oh Father, you give me just a little hope
I feel something out there reaching for me
Well, here I am, won't you take me with you out of this maze
And away from this place
Because it gets so cold and lonely here
I'll do anything to sit on a little rock with you
Talk about the scheme of things
On a small rock with you
Show me, show me, show me the way
Before they grind me down and bleach me grey
Send me power not to be afraid and when I close my eyes
Let me see You once in the light
Father, oh Father, hear me if you can
Is it true what they say that life is a dream?
