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
