Song language: English
Lord Protect My 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 |
| Seeing 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 that 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 |
| Knowing God and man have been reconciled |
| But until men lose their chains |
| And the righteousness reigns |
| Lord, protect my child |
