From "Les Miserables" Music by Claude-Michel Schoenberg Lyrics by Herbert Kretzmer and Alain Boublil God on high Hear my prayer In my need You have always been there He is young He's afraid Let him rest Heaven blessed. Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home. He's like the son I might have known If God had granted me a son. The summers die One by one How soon they fly On and on And I am old And will be gone. Bring him peace Bring him joy He is young He is only a boy. You can take You can give Let him be Let him live. If I die, let me die Let him live, bring him home Bring him home Bring him home.
