Chariot

A father kneels and starts to pray (whoa)

For the son that he can't save (Oh no)

He would do anything to take his place

But you know

Sometimes it's hard to understand mysterious ways (whoa)

So the chariot took him home

Now he's running through the streets of gold

He is swimming on the crystal seas

Can't you see?

He will wait there for you and me

A mother kneels and starts to weep (whoa)

For the children she won't see (oh no)

And she worked every single day of the week to care for her young

But on that hospital bed she waits to die alone

So the chariot takes her home

She is welcomed in the arms of love

And she is seeing all the beautiful things she dreamed of

And she is waiting to greet all of us

Don't wait too long

Today could go wrong

Don't wait too long to know

Will the chariot take you home?

Are we running down the streets of gold?

Are we singing by the crystal seas

you and me?

The gift of love has set you free
