This is one of my favorite songs.
It has such a message to it.
It's actually a prayer.
If life is like a candle bright, death must be the wind.
And you can close your window tight, and it still comes pouring in.
So I will climb the highest hill and watch the rising sun.
And I pray that I don't feel the chill.
Till I'm too old to die young.
Let me watch my children grow.
To see what they become.
Oh Lord, don't let that cold wind blow.
Till I'm too old to die young.
Now I have had some dear sweet friends I thought would never die.
Now the only thing that's left of them is the teardrops in my eyes.
If I could have one wish today.
And no.
It would be down.
Well I would say everyone could stay till they're too old to die young.
Everybody sing with me here.
Let me watch my children grow.
To see what they become.
Oh Lord, don't let.
That cold wind blow.
Till I'm too old to die young.
One more time.
Let me watch my children grow.
To see what they become.
Oh Lord, don't let.
That cold wind blow.
Till I'm too old to die young.
Let me watch my children grow.
Yeah!
Thank you.
