Son of Man from the Tarzan soundtrack

[Just Call me J]

These words resounded from the very first time I heard the song. Today, I played the CD in the car while I took some of my kids from work on an outing. This song almost reduced me to tears. I've been on the verge for the rest of the day.

"Son of Man" written/performed by Phil Collins

Oh, the power to be strong
And the wisdom to be wise
All these things will come to you in time
On this journey that you're making
There'll be answers that you'll seek
And it's you who'll climb the mountain
It's you who'll reach the peak

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

Though there's no one there to guide you
No one to take your hand
But with faith and understanding
You will journey from boy to man

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

In learning you will teach
And in teaching you will learn
You'll find your place beside the ones you love
Oh, and all the things you dreamed of
The visions that you saw
Well the time is drawing near now
It's yours to claim it all

Son of Man, look to the sky
Lift your spirit, set it free
Some day you'll walk tall with pride
Son of Man, a man in time you'll be

Son of Man
Son of Man, a man for all to see

 

Jeremy,

Wow! These are powerful words; I can see how you would be moved by them!
