Lord, help your children
The ones who have forgotten how to live
Whisper to them the mysteries of life
And let them learn again
Restore them the bliss of childhood
The taste of sweet innocence
Remind them of the ones who love them
And to let go of the ones who never will
Bring back their perfect happiness
Make them whole again
Lord, watch over your dying children
Show them that you are there.
