"God bless mommy"
A little boy says
From the corner of the floor
That he calls bed
His mama walks the streets
In a dress of red
And the rest of the world goes to bed
"God bless daddy"
A little girl cries
"Mommy, why does daddy
Work so late at night?"
Mama holds the tears
That she knows she'll weep
And the rest of the world goes to sleep
God bless the children everywhere
Poor little souls with a cross to bear
I guess when He said
"Bring the little ones to me"
The good Lord knew
How the world would be
How could the Lord
Adopt her cries
As He fights to save the life
Of a dying child
They beat him, Lord
Beyond repair
As the rest of the world says a prayer
"God help me"
A young man cries
As he sees the deadly drugs
Take his young friend's life
Please help them, Lord
For they are blind
They only search
For peace of mind
God bless the children everywhere
Poor little souls with a cross to bear
As the final light is dimmed
Lord, hear my prayer
God bless the children everywhere
