Lord, let me live in a house down by the sea And show a tenderness to everyone I meet And if the day should come when it's time For me to leave Let it be you the terms that I keep Time, Let me feel the sweet touch of your release Let it work in ways of order and of peace With the wind and with the sun My good morning has begun I will walk with confidence and with a calm With scissors and a lock By the water and the rock With the memory of family and me Or could it be that I've Everything I want? That I'm in some happiness I looked for long? And if that day has come, let it wash over me Let me stand there in the light and forever be Time, please do the sweet touch of your release Let it flow in ways that I have never seen
