Can He Carry the Sun

What is a man? Can he bear the burdens of a thousand worlds? Could he stand alone on the summit of the earth? Can he hold back the rivers? Can he touch the sky? What is a man? Can he carry the sun? Can he swallow the sea? Can he look at the face of God And still be free? Can he walk on the fire? Can he sleep in the storm? Can he die for the world And still be born? What is a man? What is a man? In the sky In the sky In the sky I can hear the angels crying "Save us all" But the devil He's a-flyin' on the world The end is nigh The end is nigh And the earth She's a-shakin' And the moon She's gone blind And the stars They are falling One at a time In the sky In the sky In the sky I can hear the angels crying "Save us all" But the devil He's a-flyin' on the world The end is nigh The end is nigh Can he lift up the heavens? Can he bury the dead? Can he carry all the sorrow In his hands and in his head? Can he stand at the ending With his eyes open wide?
