Somehow I know that There's a place up above With no more hurt and struggling, Free of all atrocities and suffering, Because I feel the unconditional love From one who cares enough for me To erase all my burdens And let me be free to
[Chorus:] Fly like a bird Take to the sky I need you now, Lord, Carry me high, Don't let the world break me tonight, I need the strength of you by my side, Sometimes this life can be so cold, I pray you'll come and carry me home
Can we recover, Will the world ever be A place of peace and harmony With no war and with no brutality, If we loved each other We would find victory, But in this harsh reality Sometimes I'm so despondent That I feel the need to
[Chorus]
Keep your head to the sky With God's love you'll survive
[Chorus]
Carry me higher, higher, higher! Carry me higher, higher, higher! Carry me home! Oooooh Jesus! Carry me higher, Lord
