[Priest]
Weeping may endure for a night,
but joy comes in the morning
Trust him.
Somehow I know that
There's a place up above
With no more hurt and struggling
Free of all atrocities and suffering
Because I feel the unconditional love
From one who cares enough for me
To erase all my burdens
And let me be free to
[chorus]
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of you by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray you'll come and carry me home
Can we recover
Will the world ever be
A place of peace and harmony
With no war and with no brutality
If we loved each other
We would find victory
But in this harsh reality
Sometimes I'm so despondent
That I feel the need to
[chorus]
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need You now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You'll come and carry me home
Da da da da da da

[Priest]
He says he will never forsake you
Or leave you alone
Trust him
I need You right here right now Lord
I need You right here by my side
Keep your head to the sky
With God's love you'll survive
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You'll come and carry me home
Carry me higher, higher, higher
Carry me higher, higher, higher
Carry me home
Higher JesusCarry me higher Lord
This is one of my favorite songs from Carey's "The Emancipation of Mimi" studio album. Hindi man siya ganun nabigyang pansin, still this song is still dear to me (wala nga siyang music vid e). Pop/gospel ang theme na isinulat ng The Voice herself plus ng isang artist. Pinerform niya ito with "We Belong Together" nung 2006 Grammy Awards and she got a standing ovation. It was her best performance after ng ilang taon niya sa music industry. Though medyo garalgal ang simula, bumawi nung gitna. Medyo iba na kasi ang boses ni Carey ngayon, parang nagiging nasal na nga e at minsan hindi ko na naiintindihan ang lyrics na sinasabi niya, yet for me, she is still one of the greatest artist of all time. Kudos to you, nakakainspire talaga.
