Medley
You do know why you're here?
Yes, there's a great confusion on Earth
And the power that is has concluded the following
Perfect Man has visited Earth already, and His voice was heard
The voice of imperfect man must now be made manifest
And I have been selected as the most likely candidate
Yes, the time is April, therefore you, a Taurus, must go
To be born under the same sign twice adds strength
And this strength, combined with wisdom and love, is the key
Explain again to me, Lord, why I'm here
I don't know, I don't know
The setting for the stage still not clear
Where's the show? Where's the show?
Let it begin, let it begin
I am born, can You use me?
What would You have me to do, Lord?
Shall I sing them a song?
I could tell them all about You, Lord
I could write of the loves I have known
I'll work in their cotton and cornfields
I promise to do all I can
I'll laugh, and I'll cry, I'll live, and I'll die
Please, Lord, let me be man
Dear Lord, let me be a man
And Ill give it all that I can
If I am needed in this distant land
Please, Lord, let me be a man
Before I begin this elaborate jouney, portraying as 'a' typical man
Last minute instructions would surely be welcome
Please, Lord, let me hold to Your hand
Dear Lord, let me be a man
And I'll give it all that I can
If I am needed in this distant land
Please, Lord, let me be a man
Yes, there's a great confusion on Earth
And the power that is has concluded the following
Perfect Man has visited Earth already, and His voice was heard
The voice of imperfect man must now be made manifest
And I have been selected as the most likely candidate
Yes, the time is April, therefore you, a Taurus, must go
To be born under the same sign twice adds strength
And this strength, combined with wisdom and love, is the key
Explain again to me, Lord, why I'm here
I don't know, I don't know
The setting for the stage still not clear
Where's the show? Where's the show?
Let it begin, let it begin
I am born, can You use me?
What would You have me to do, Lord?
Shall I sing them a song?
I could tell them all about You, Lord
I could write of the loves I have known
I'll work in their cotton and cornfields
I promise to do all I can
I'll laugh, and I'll cry, I'll live, and I'll die
Please, Lord, let me be man
Dear Lord, let me be a man
And Ill give it all that I can
If I am needed in this distant land
Please, Lord, let me be a man
Before I begin this elaborate jouney, portraying as 'a' typical man
Last minute instructions would surely be welcome
Please, Lord, let me hold to Your hand
Dear Lord, let me be a man
And I'll give it all that I can
If I am needed in this distant land
Please, Lord, let me be a man
