I go to stay

As I look to the morning sky.

With the Great Spirit and unseen eyes.

Which I know are by my side.

In the wonderment of this beauty.

Which I behold! With my earthly eyes.

My spirit wonders before I die.

Will my eyes see all the beauty?

Under the Great Spirits sky.

Will I truly find contentment before I die?

Will He truly speak to me?

With all that I see! Before my earthly eyes.

And in the end! Will I receive that wonderful prize?

My end shall come I know not when.

But as the days shall come.

And the days shall go.

Upon the wings of Eagles my payers will go.

Will soon shall come the day?

When to the Great Spirit I will ascend to stay.

Too live all my days in a wonderful way.

I tell you my friend.

I fear not the coming of the end.

For I know to Him! I will ascend.

For I have change my ways.

To turn my nights into days.

For I try to follow His righteous ways.

So that I know by my side He will stay.

Look for me in all my days.

For soon to my home up there I will go too stay.

For this world is not my home.

For until the day I go to him to stay.

I will look and listen for what He has to say.

It is not right to keep out of sight

And to wonder through life nights.

It is not right to keep evil at its heights.

Walk in His ways through life days.

And soon you will come to stay.

Yes in that land of beautiful ways.

 which Is my home! Of which.

I go too stay
