G7 For his age, he's wise C G C/G G He's got his mother's eyes Em There's gladness in his heart D G/D D He's young and he's wild G G7 My only prayer C Cm is, if I can't be there, G D G Lord, protect my child As his youth now unfolds He is centuries old Just to see him at play makes me smile No matter what happens to me No matter what my destiny Lord, protect my child While the world is asleep You can look at it and weep Few things you find are worthwhile And though I don't ask for much No material things to touch Lord, protect my child He's young and on fire Full of hope and desire In a world that's been raped, raped and defiled If I fall along the way And can't see another day Lord, protect my child There'll be a time I hear tell When all will be well When God and man will be reconciled But until men lose their chains And righteousness reigns Lord, protect my child You can simplify chords by removing barre
