It is s
aid that when
we leave t
his world
If we have s

So I’ll lift up my h

What I cannot do h
ere, there’s a p
lace that I
can

I’m w
aiting for the silent

To f

In this life, though I’ve t
ried
Many th
ings couldn’t
be
Cl
osed minds with f
aces looking d

me
P

All men d

St

W

No third or s
