Rich Mullins - I'll Carry On lyrics

Momma I've got two strong hands. And they're fine as far as hands go I can shoulder the future I can face the wind For the dream that I must follow It's a dream that can k** with its beauty It's a hurt that can heal with its pain And with all of these miles that lie before me I may never get home again But I'll carry the songs I learned when we were kids I'll carry the scars of generations gone by I'll pray for you always, and I promise you this I'll carry on ~ I'll carry on I kissed the earth on my daddy's grave Said goodbye to my brave young companions But when they hoist that sail I know my heart will break As bright and as fine as the morning I don't know where this road will take me But they say there's a place there for a man And I'm only afraid that my dreams may betray me And I'll never get home again But I'll carry the songs I learned when we were kids And I'll carry the scars of generations gone by I'll pray for you always and I promise you this I'll carry on ~ I'll carry on And oh, I can shoulder the future I can brave the wind Oh we go on ~ we go on but we never get home again So I'll carry the songs I learned when we were kids I'll carry the scars of generations gone by I'll pray for you always and I promise you this I'll carry on ~ I'll carry on And I'll carry the songs I learned when we were kids I'll carry the scars of generations gone by I'll pray for you always and I promise you this I'll carry on (I'll carry on) I'll carry the songs I learned when we were kids I'll carry the scars of generations gone by I'll pray for you always and I promise you this (promise you this) I'll carry on (I'll carry on) I'll carry the songs I learned when we were kids I'll carry the scars of generations gone by I'll pray for you always and I promise you this I'll carry on And I'll carry the songs (carry the songs) And I'll carry the scars (carry the scars) And I'll pray for you always, and I promise you this I'll carry on And I'll carry the songs (carry the songs) And I'll carry the scars (carry the scars) And I'll pray for you always and I promise you this I'll carry on ~ I'll carry on
