Letra de «Child»
For his age, he is wise
He's got his mother's eyes
There's gladness in his heart
He's young and he's wild
My only prayer is, if I can't be there
Lord, protect my child
As his youth now unfolds He is centuries old Seein' him at play makes me smile No matter what happens to me No matter what my destiny Lord, protect my child
Protect my child Protect my child When the world is asleep You can look at him and weep Few things you find are worthwhile Though I don't ask for much No material things to touch Lord, protect my child
He's young and on fire Full of hope and desire In a world that's been raped, raped and defiled And if I fall along the way And can't see another day Lord, protect my child
Protect my child Protect my child
There'll be a time I hear tell When all will be well Well God and man have been reconciled But until men lose their chains And the righteousness reigns Lord, protect my child
