Children's Eyes
by Lisa Bevill

Album: Lisa Bevill
by Lisa Bevill

Good night, my child, now the sun is sleeping
May God protect you until you rise
A prayer for those who are cold and weeping
And bring some hope to our children's eyes

A father gone and a mother broken
For selfish dreams we compromise
The deepest pain that we leave unspoken
Is screaming from our children's eyes

If you love them
You'll always compensate for worldly lack
If you lose them
You may never get them back

They cry for bread and a cup of water
We give them promises and lies
A sea of tears soon will overcome us
Falling from our children's eyes

Oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh-oh...

Ooh, if you love them
You'll always compensate for worldly lack
If you lose them
You may never get them back

So while we fight for the earth and oceans
The orphaned souls will be our demise
If man is measured by his emotions
I see a void in our children's eyes

Oh, if you love them
Keep them safe from harm
Please protect them
And hold them in your arms
And bring some hope to our children's eyes

Bring them hope
Give them peace
Show them love in your eyes
Heaven's peace...
