Carry along my little one
The summer is fine and you grow
Love the paths you run with your friends
The fruit of the vine hanging low

God, where's the path I walked
You've hidden from his feet
The song of a boy in innocence
Is incomplete

Carry on my little one
Sicknesses come and they go
I'll find the path I've heard of a well
Where healing waters flow

God, am I wrong to ask
That you would comfort me
But I would give anything
To heal my baby

Carry across my little one
Tide is high and I row
Seas be kind to my little one
I cannot hold while I row

God, where's the island well
I heard of long ago
Show me the living well
Where healing waters flow
