Where Thou Art Is Where I Want To Be

I’d give away my freedom just for thee And gladly be thy servant all my life, For where thou art is where I want to be In this uncertain world that’s full of strife, I’d be thy guide through all adversities And gladly be thy servant all my life. I lack so many of good qualities: With such as I am and whate’er my strength I’d be thy guide through all adversities. Come take my hand and however the length This journey takes, I would not flinch but face, With such as I am and whate’er my strength. However far or tiresome be the race; However doubtful the future for us This journey takes, I would not flinch but face. If thy heart were a gaol that to live thus, I’d give away my freedom just for thee; However doubtful the future for us, For where thou art is where I want to be.
