The road is long

The road as a go into my street this morning, as a finished my early walk, usually nose to tail at 8:30am, everyone listening and staying home .... brought to mind a much loved tune

The road is long
With many a winding turns
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
