| O my child, you cry so many tears
|
| Seems like you’ve been crying for the world
|
| O my child, your world so full of fears
|
| Seems like you’ve been crying for the world
|
| I to bear you, I to raise you
|
| Father, give me strength to do it right
|
| I to adore you, be a refuge for you
|
| Father, give me strength to do it right
|
| Hush my child, and lay you down to sleep
|
| Seems like you’ve been crying for the world
|
| Hush my child, your tears that burn so deep
|
| Seems like you’ve been crying for the world
|
| I will protect you, guard you and guide you
|
| Father, give me strength to do it right
|
| I will love you more than I have to Father, give me strength to do it right
|
| O my child, I only wish I could
|
| Suffer all your trials in your place
|
| O my child, you know I truly would
|
| Take on all the evils you will face |
