	Story Behind the Song The wife of the priest at Scott's old church had struggled several times with cancer. The third time it was clear that the cancer was finally going to take her. She had the luxury (if you can call it that) of time to travel around in those last few months, saying goodbye to family and friends -- time to "get her affairs in order", as the saying goes. We hope this song will be of comfort to somebody somewhere. Lyrics WHERE I'LL BE This version ©1998 Scott Cowan, Joe Scherk, Peter Violas Lyrics: Scott Cowan, Joe Scherk Music & Arrangement: Scott Cowan, Joe Scherk, Peter Violas Another ache in another new place Another pill to take, another symptom to chase And I feel like it's time to find myself a place to kneel And pray for grace and perseverance A winged embrace to hold the near and the dear ones 'Cause they're scared, but I'll tell you, I'm prepared CHORUS To walk that long straight and narrow I'm not a prisoner to this body of mine But they say the cancer's running deep in my marrow Can you help me make the most of a little time? And I don't know if it shows But I'm feeling each breath grow shorter I guess it's time to put our affairs in order And be sure that you'll be well provided for CHORUS 2 To walk that long straight and narrow To keep your faith and leave your fear alone And don't you paint me as a saint or a hero I've never found perfection on my own He's the brightest Light, we've always known So as the curtains close around me I feel the final touch of all of you who surround me It's the way you say goodbye That helps to light the way to die So shed a tear for an ending But God in Heaven gives His heart to your mending And you'll see, that anytime and anywhere you think of me, Then you know where I'll be.
