Come Child
Can I stay right here beside you I don’t wanna leave right now
Cause I am feeling so alone and I really don’t know how
To get through this on my own so I ask if you don’t mind
Can I stay here can I pray here and lean on you a while
Will you hold my hand and tell me that you know my suffering
And though I must go through it you’ll go all the way with me
And together we can do it if you help me to my feet
I can stand please hold my hand and cling to me
You said come child bring me your burdens come child bring me your cares
Come child come sit at my feet you know your father is there
Can I place my feet in footprints that you’ve already made
I have no fear or worry if I let you go ahead
I can make the journey if you’ll lead me all the way
If you show me where to go I will follow you and stay
You said come child bring me your burdens come child bring me your cares
Come child come sit at my feet you know your father is there
Will you take me to the places where sorrow becomes sweet
As I cling to nail scarred hands and follow nail pierced feet
But if I leave the path and start to fall behind
If you just stop I will catch up and lean on you a while
You said come child bring me your burdens come child bring me your cares
Come child come sit at my feet you know your father is there
You said come child bring me your burdens come child bring me your cares
Come child come sit at my feet you know your father is there
