They sang this on are last night on trek and I couldn't stop crying. Even though they were so hungry and cold they prayed for each other and kept there head up. They crossed the plains to find peace and a place where they could worship. When I doing the women's poll the only thing that could keep me going was the feeling of my ancestors smiling down from heaven and helping there my hurt foot and blisters. I could feel the love they had for me and how proud they were of me. I love them. I hope to meet them all some day
Father Can you hear me Will you listen to me for a while Please, can you make the day warm The sun will dry the dewy grass And all will be well And Father Make my steps a little larger I’ll try not to fall behind Also bless my shoes To help them last another mile or so Father I’m so hungry I’ve had nothing to eat for a while Please, can you fill our grain barrel Mother can make a flour cake And all will be well But Father When the food is gone, forgive me I’ll try hard not to complain Also, bless my mother Dry her tears and help her smile again Father I’m so weary Can I stop and rest here for a while Please keep the cold from blowing Bring on the night, so I can dream And all will be well But Father If I sleep too long, forgive me Wake me up, don’t leave me behind But, if sleep still keeps me Father in your arms please carry me home And all will be well All will be well All is well
One of my favourite songs in the Mission Field. Love this.
Do you think you could get in contact with someone who has the sheet music to it??

anonymous cupcake My trek too we just got back a few days ago and we were all crying
Thankyou so much! I LOVE this song soo much!
I love this song! When I hear it, I remember what I have been blessed with and what my ancestors had to go through:)
Father
Can you hear me
Will you listen to me for a while
Please, can you make the day warm
The sun will dry the dewy grass
And all will be well
And Father
Make my steps a little larger
I’ll try not to fall behind
Also bless my shoes
To help them last another mile or so
Father
I’m so hungry
I’ve had nothing to eat for a while
Please, can you fill our grain barrel
Mother can make a flour cake
And all will be well
But Father
When the food is gone, forgive me
I’ll try hard not to complain
Also, bless my mother
Dry her tears and help her smile again
Father
I’m so weary
Can I stop and rest here for a while
Please keep the cold from blowing
Bring on the night, so I can dream
And all will be well
But Father
If I sleep too long, forgive me
Wake me up, don’t leave me behind
But, if sleep still keeps me
Father in your arms please carry me home
And all will be well
All will be well
All is well
