The Child |
| Glorious light covers him tonight |
| Him, unaware and silent, six years old and sleeping |
| The rest of us dying and waiting for him to grow old |
| Old enough to save us, old, yeah, so save us, save us |
| (So save us) |
| Glorious light covers him tonight |
| One hundred twenty volts wired straight to his soul |
| (Straight to his soul) |
| But beyond the hills a shadow is falling through |
| The valley of ashes where death meets destruction |
| Oh yeah, so lead us, lead us |
| (So lead us) |
| The reign of death will die and we will strike |
| Keeping on his perseverance merits preservation |
| Our enemies sails will hang on broken masts |
| And their tackle will be rendered useless, rendered useless |
| Sometimes it takes the mind of a child to overcome |
| If it’s what you’ve found, trust what you see. |
| Ask, is there something wrong with this picture? |
| And take it over |
