GOD BLESS THE CHILD

This child is homeless. That child's on crack
One plays with a gun, while the other takes the bullet in his back
This boy's a beggar, that girl sells her soul.
They both work the same street, the same hell hole

Hallelujah, Hallelujah God bless the child who suffers
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Let every man helps his brother

Some are born addicted and some are just thrown away
Some have daddies who make them play games they don't want to play
But with hope and faith We must understand
All God's children need is love and us to hold their little hands

This boy is hungry, he ain't got enough to eat
That girl's cold and she ain't got no shoes on her feet
When a child's spirit is broken and feels all hope is gone
God help them find the strength to carry on

But with hope and faith Yeah, we can understand
All God's children need is love And us to hold their little hands
Just a little hope... With a little love...
A little love and understanding

Hallelujah, Hallelujah Let us all love one another
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Make all our hearts blind to color
Hallelujah, Hallelujah God bless the child who suffers
