Will life go straight ? Will it obey me someday?
Never sin my soul, never moan my land in May
Nor my lovely parents get mad at me
Nor I postpone things to infinity
Never life be straight line
Like pulse of heart
Up and down.
Let me rise
O God
Let me fly
Till I reach my bed
The infinite peace of head
Where my soul blend with theirs
So that heart could find its ultimate streams
Let me fly up and up, till it’s thy majestic throne
Will then my red hands be free, light my way at dawn
With thy endless mercy, my soul fly, in the eternal peace of
thee.
