God save me from all fatal errors
In my quest to bring me home
Make my time not so lonely
When I find im on my own,

And if it storms for six days
make the seventh sun
That i may find a little peace
When theres no else to run,

If i can't cope with all im given
Give me strengh to work around
And when my thoughts turn to my death
Keep me firmly fixed to ground,

For i have others of my body
Who need me a while longer
With them in mind and a little hope
Please make me that much stronger,

And if you have a smile to spare
Try to look my way
Im a little sad and very lost
Help me stay here one more day.

Chris, In this verse

For i have others of my body
Who need me a while longer
With them in mind and a little hope
Please make me that much stronger,

I already see, much strength.  Very well done.  

seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna

This just flows so well and I love the plea for a little strength and a few days more.  Great piece.
