D#m
Don't you listen to the never
Keep praying for rain
Dancing for rain little girl by the drain
Motherless child, rescue rescue

Don't you listen to the never
Keep praying for rain
Dancing for rain with your doll by the drain
Motherless child, rescue rescue

Keep your ear to the shell, keep your ear to the shell
Stay on the path that leads to the well
There are many take the one that leads to the well,
rescue rescue
Keep your ear to the shell, keep your ear to the shell

Chorus:
           G#m
Motherless child
Dost thou believe
              D#m            B             G#m
That thine afflictions have caused us to grieve?
Motherless child angels have closed
       D#m               B               G#m
Their eyes, thou wast thrown away and exposed

Don't you listen to the never
Keep praying for rain
Dancing for rain, no sweet for the
pain of a motherless child
Rescue rescue

Keep an ear to the shell, keep an ear to the shell
Stay on the path that leads to the well
There are many, take the one that leads to the well

Chorus:
Motherless child,
follow my voice
And I shall give thee great cause to rejoice
Motherless child, be of good cheer
Mine arm is reached out, I am here

D#m               B               A#
I'll crush every doubt and every fear
Clothesline the shame and you will
answer to the name

D#m       C#        D#m        C#
Wonderful wonderful, wonderful wonderful
G#m         C#         B
Motherless child I am with thee,
 F#        G#m
thou wast never alone

Maybe I'm dirty, maybe I'm unworthy
Motherless child, can you hear me?
I will give you a home

Wonderful wonderful, wonderful wonderful
Motherless child I am with thee,
thou wast never alone

Maybe I'm dirty, maybe I'm unworthy
Motherless child, can you hear me?
I will give you a home

You were never alone
