My Child

Oh! Precious, naked, fearful soul
I see you, just standing there lonely and cold


"Feed me, father", that's what your needful eyes speak to me
Food for your body, mind, soul and heart are all here for you to see


My child, just open your eyes and look towards the sky
There you'll find food for mouth, thought, spirit and heart. True light knows no lie


Dear child, trust in me and all that I do
My will is your will and this abundant love I have is for you
