Gaurdian

little child
abandoned by the world
abandoned by our father

forgive our father's sins.

Little child
your heart is breaking
but I know I am not mistaking
your pain in this world

our father who art in heaven
hallowed be thy name.

little child
your heart is weeping
never will you find your mother sleeping
in this broken world.

I have made you cry 
little child

I have known the worlds pain
little child

I have not forgiven our father.

little child 
I am sorry

I must be your guardian.

little child 
stop your tears.

I will keep away your fears.

little child
I will fight the world

I am your guardian.
