Lord, Protect My Child Lyrics

Lost Dogs Lord, Protect My Child

[Verse 1: Terry Scott Taylor]
For his age, he is wise
He's got his mother's eyes
There's gladness in his heart
He's young and he's wild
My only prayer
Is, if I can't be there
Lord, protect my child

[Verse 2: Michael Roe]
As his youth now unfolds
He is centuries old
Seeing him at play makes me smile
No matter what happens to me
No matter what my destiny
Lord, protect my child

[Chorus]
Protect my child
Protect my child

[Verse 3: Terry Scott Taylor]
When the world is asleep
You can look at him and weep
Few things you find that are worthwhile
Though I don't ask for much
No material things to touch
Lord, protect my child
[Verse 4: Michael Roe]
He's young and on fire
Full of hope and desire
In a world that's been raped--raped and defiled
And if I fall along the way
And can't see another day
Lord, protect my child

[Chorus]
Protect my child
Protect my child

[Verse 5: Terry Scott Taylor]
There'll be a time I hear tell
When all will be well
Knowing God and man have been reconciled
But until men lose their chains
And the righteousness reigns
Lord, protect my child
