God on high
 Hear my pray
 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 a son I might have known
 If God had granted me a son
 The summers die one by one
 How soon they fly on and on
 Before I'm old, before I'm 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
