You laid me on your shoulders You chose me forever ago As you looked for me in corners And swept off the dust in the home When my heart is bruised and tender You carried the weight of the world Like a lamb who's led to slaughter My body was bought with a word Cause I want to be there Yeah I want to be there In my daily communion With you there's warmth in grey Novembers There's hope in these halls and corridors For I'll see your face forever In your presence I am fooled no more Cause I want to be there Yeah I want to be there In my daily communion Yeah I want to be there In my daily communion Though I'm hungry and thirsty for hope I won't feast till my father is home Cause I want to be there Yeah I want to be there In my daily communion Yeah I want to be there In my daily communion
