# Masquerading as

a man with a reason, #

# my charade is the

event ofthe season. #

#And if l claim to

be a wise man, #

# it surely means

that l don't know. #

# On a stormy sea

of moving emotion. #

# Tossed about l'm like

a ship on the ocean. #

# l set a course

forwinds offortune, #

# but l hear

the voices say. #

# Cary on my

wayward son. #

# Forthere'll be peace

when you are done. #

# Lay your weay head to rest,

now don't you cy no more. #

[music]

# Cary on, #

# you will always remember. #

# Cary on, #

# Nothing equals

the splendor. #

# Nowyour life's

no longer empty. #

# Surely heaven

waits foryou. #

# Cary on

my wayward son. #

# Forthere'll be peace

when you are done. #

# Lay your weay head

to rest. #

# Now don't you

cy no more. #

[music]

# Like a note thrills in a song

When l play it again, #

# it's gone 'cause it

was never in the sound #

# And it keeps me wanting

that mysterious thing. #

# Like a night is waiting

for a dawn #

# Evey prayer l say #

# a little closer #

# to my resting place. #

# a little closer #

# Where my final breath is the

beginning to never needing #

#And l will find my last Amen,

my lastAmen #

#And while

the thrills are fading #

# Thejoy is

in the waiting #

# Somewhere

in the grand design #

# it's good

to be unsatisfied. #

# It keeps the faith

of hope a little more alive. #

#A little closer

a little closer. #'

# Where my final breath is the

beginning to never needing #

#And l will find my lastAmen

my lastAmen #

# Amen, my amen. #
