Lyrics
My Child
Verse 1
Little boy, little girl
Do you know what the future holds for you in this world?
Did I hurt you? Have I ever let you down?
Did you ever reach out to me and I was not around?
Little girl, Little boy
Are you lost? Where do you call home?
You don?t know where you?re going,
But you know where you don?t want to be,
You want to be loved, you want to be held, you want to be heard?
Chorus 1
My Child, I don?t want to fail you
My Child, help me understand you
My Child, I don?t want to lose you
My Child??
Verse 2
Baby boy, baby girl
Do I hear when you?re speak?
Do I listen when you have something to say?
Am I your friend when you need a parent?
And have I been a parent when you need a friend?
I should have held you, I should heard you, I should have loved you more?..
Chorus
My Child, I don?t want to fail you
My Child, help me understand you
My Child, I don?t want to lose you
My Child??
My Child I love you so, l
And I live to see you grow
Give my hear and all my soul
For My Child
I say a pray for you each day,
Father in Heaven make a way
For My Child
