When You Are Alone
When you are alone
In a disaster zone
Being lost and forgotten,
Afraid of the world unknown,
With care and courage I will arrive
And lay down by your side,
In the temple of his kingdom
I will pray for your life.
From hills nearby, I hear your cry
I'll pick you up, and hold you high
I'll hold you tight, won't let you fall
Deep in my heart, I hear your call
You're just a child
You did nothing wrong,
When so many die
And life just tags along,
With message of hope I will arrive
And lay down by your side,
In the temple of his kingdom
I will pray for your life.
From hills nearby, I hear your cry
I'll pick you up, and hold you high
I'll hold you tight, won't let you fall
Deep in my heart, I hear your call
You miss your Dad,
You miss your Mom,
You miss so much their loving hug
And as you ache for mother's touch
I'll wrap you in my motherly hymn,
A lullaby of love I will sing
And lay down by your side,
In the temple of his kingdom
I will pray for your life
In the temple of his kingdom
You will live and survive.
