God on high, hear my prayer,
FDmEmFCDmCG
In my need, you have always been there.

He is young, he's a-fraid,
AmCGAmGF
Let him rest, heaven blessed,
FDmEmCDm
Bring him home, bring him home,
CGF
Bring him home.
[Chorus}
CAmCG
He's like the son I might have known,
CAmCG
If god had granted me a son.
CDmCDmC
The summers die, one by one,
GFCDmC
How soon they fly, on and on,
FAmFAm
And I am old, and will be gone.

Bring him peace, bring him joy,
A#mGAmA#mAmGEmC
He is young, he is on-ly a boy.

You can take, you can give,

Let him be, let him live.

If I die, let me die,

Bring him home, bring, him, home.
