Carry On My Wayward Son

Rachel Rachel

Compositor: Kerry Livgren

Chorus:
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace
When you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more

Once I rose above
The noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse
Beyond this illusion
I was soaring ever higher
But I flew too high
Though my eyes could see
I still was a blind man
Though my mind would think
I still was a mad man
I hear His voice
When I'm dreamin'
I can hear Him say

Repeat Chorus

Masquerading as a man
With a reason
My charade is the event
Of the season
And if I claim
To be a wise man
It surely means
That I don't know
On a stormy sea
Of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like
A ship on the ocean
I set a course
For winds of fortune
But I hear Him say

Repeat Chorus

Carry on
You will always remember
Carry on
Nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's
No longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you

Repeat Chorus
