I Will Carry You Home

Even though you walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death, do not fear!
My rod and staff will comfort you,
And my hand will always be near!
I am guiding you home…

Though the flavor of life seems gone,
And you could wish that life would end,
Don’t give up, for I am with you
And I will be a loving friend!
I am bringing you home…

When the tears come and fill your eyes
When your heart seems to be broken,
Look to the beautiful sunrise!
Of my love this is a token—
I will carry you home!
