Bring Him Home

Lyrics

[VALJEAN, standing over MARIUS] 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 [Dawn breaks.] [ENJOLRAS] The people have not stirred We are abandoned by those who still live in fear The people have not heard Yet we will not abandon those who cannot hear Let us not waste lives Let all the women and fathers of children go from here
