|
I hear a low faint voice that says |
|
Papa and mama's dead |
|
And it comes from the poor orphan child |
|
That must be clothed and fed |
|
And it comes from the poor orphan child |
|
That must be clothed and fed |
|
And it comes from the poor orphan child |
|
That must be clothed and fed |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Til they've all reach that glittering strand |
|
Think of the many children now |
|
Poor little boys and girls |
|
Who once had mother's loving arms |
|
To smooth their golden curls |
|
Who once had mother's loving hand |
|
To smooth their golden curls |
|
Who once had mother's loving hand |
|
To smooth their golden curls |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Til they've all reach that glittering strand |
|
But now we see those wandering curls |
|
Hang careless round their brow |
|
They say to us, my papa's dead |
|
And I've no mother now |
|
They say to us, my papa's dead |
|
And I've no mother now |
|
They say to us, my papa's dead |
|
And I've no mother now |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Til they've all reach that glittering strand |
|
O Savior, every orphan bless |
|
Wherever they may roam |
|
Bless every hand that lends them aid |
|
And bless the orphan's home |
|
Bless every hand that lends them aid |
|
And bless the orphan's home |
|
Bless every hand that lends them aid |
|
And bless the orphan's home |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Savior, lead them by the hand |
|
Til they've all reach that glittering strand |
