XII. Child of Wonder by Eric Whitacre Lyrics

Child of wonder
Child of sky
Time to end your voyage
Time to die

Weary waters beckon
Dark and deep
Child of soft surrender
Child of sleep

Child of sorrow
Child of rain
There is no tomorrow
No more pain

Turn your silvered sails
Toward the light
Child of mourning
Child of night

Child of iridescence
Child of dream
Stars and moons will guide you
Down the stream
Stretched on ocean waves
Exchanging foam
Welcome home my child
Welcome home
