I woke up today with this song in my head & tears in my eyes - does anybody else remember this song ?

"I search and I wander, lost and alone
My friend's but a shadow, and no place my home
The sun shines so strongly, but I cannot see
The road is too steep with no passage for me

I'm merely a child, but inside I've grown old
The world cannot touch me, for each touch is cold
The warmth that I search for is nowhere in sight
I see only sorrow, I see only night

A voice came to greet me, extending its heart
A voice pleading softly, "do not stand apart"
A voice giving warmth I'd not known before
A voice casting light as it opened the door

I followed that voice and soon I could see
A room filled with children, no different from me.
The beauty of Torah was drawing me near,
A light in the darkness, so pure and so clear

I followed that voice, and soon I could see
A room filled with children all welcoming me
The study of Torah, we hope and we pray
Will shatter the darkness turn night into day."

yeah something seemed off about the words - but I copied it from a site ... I was hoping to find a jep record with the words - alas it is no longer the 70's
