Oh My Child- a poem

Working on the melody again….

Oh My Child- Lyrics copyright 2005 Larry Bowers

Oh my child,

You’re not alone,

Though sometimes,

It seems I’m gone,

I’m always right beside you,

To love you, and to guide you…

All I need to do is find you..

Call my name….

In this world that pulls you towards the bad,

Makes you want things, you know that you can’t have

Temptations of the worst kind,

Are blown against a weary mind.

Like a hurricane against a house of cards.

We wander in the dark of worldly things,

We rage against the wrong that living brings,

But I tell you one sweet day

When we go away.

The faith we’ve had won’t be a waste of time…
