Child

When you were born into this world

Your mom and dad saw a dream fulfilled

Dream come true

The answer to their prayers

You were to them a special child

Gave 'em joy every time you smiled

Each time you cried

They're at your side to care

Child, you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through, and God it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you live

How many seasons came and went

So many years have now been spent

For time ran fast

And now at last you're strong

Now what has gotten over you

You seem to hate your parents too

Do speak out your mind

Why do you find them wrong

Child, you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through and God it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you live

And now your path has gone astray

Child you ain't sure what to do or say

You're so alone

No friends are on your side

And child you now break down in tears

Let them drive away your fears

Where must you go

Their arms stay open wide

Child, you don't know

You'll never know how far they'd go

To give you all their love can give

To see you through, and God, it's true

They'd die for you, if they must, to see you live
