lyrics

Why am I here on this earth again
Where there’s so much pain
And so much suffering?
Why does it take so long to shed all
Of those layers of hatred and greed?

I know I have a choice
I have free will
And I can act out of love or fear
But sometimes I crumble
And I ask the above
Especially when things down here get tough

Lord, come by, come by, come by, come by
Send all your angels to look after me alright
Lord, come by, come by, come by, come by
Send all your angels to look after me alright

How can I see
What’s beyond my mind?
Beyond what I think to be true and right?
How does it feel to be free of all
The illusions of doubt and of fear?

Could I live a great life on this earth?
Full of joy instead of worries
Sometimes I don’t see how and I ask the above
Especially when things down here get tough

Chorus

Let your light surround me
Your love unfold me
Keep me on the path of peace
Let your light surround meYour love unfold me
Keep me on the path of peace
Peace
Chorus
