Song of the day 2:: Bring Him Home - Valjean Quartet [Les Misérables in concert, the 25th an...

My second song of the day is very different from the first-It is from the beautiful broadway Les Miserables-I have not yet had a chance to see it but one day I will. This song was sung for the 25th anniversary of the broadway musical and all four of the actors for Jean Valjean sing "Bring Him Home" together. Needless to say it is a breath-taking production. Turn up your speakers and drink it in!

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.
