I'll Carry on Beside You - Strawbs

Short is the time

Though eternity long

Life is but part of the journey

While you’ve the faith to carry on

I’ll carry on beside you.

Steep is the path

But your feet have wings

Sharing the weight of your burden

While you’ve the strength to carry on

I’ll carry on beside you.

Dark is the night

Yet the road shines clear

Lit by the souls of believers

While you can see to carry on

I’ll carry on beside you.

Deep is the grave

May you rest in peace

Preparing yourself for the next time

While you still need to carry on

I’ll carry on beside you.
