To C.H.M.
A car, and a road,
And a hill to climb,
And a valley in which to roam,
I'll ask no more
Of God or man,
If only the road lead home.
A ship and a chart,
And a sea to cross
And a country beyond the main,
I'll ask no more
Of God or man,
If the ship reach home again.
A hope, and a dream,
And a life to live,
And a will to carry through,
I'll ask no more
Of God or man,
If it's Heaven, at last and you.
