My Child
The angels must have sent you
When you came upon this shore
For you came with so much love
When you knocked on my souls door
You sailed across that sea of love
To find yourself a mum
And I was deeply honoured
For you chose me as the one
I watched you playing as a child
And guarded over you
I watched you grow in wonder
And I’ll always be proud of you
I will always be with you my child
‘til forever finds an end
You are the love and joy in my life
My future and my friend
One day you’ll leave my arms my child
When another steals your heart
Remember, wherever in the world you are
We will never be apart

For the Children
What is a child
But a spirit that’s free
And once in our innocence
Stood you and me
That place full magic
And wonder and awe
Where the sea was of love
And we played on its shore
Now we are older
And there’s tears in our eyes
We see too many children
With a spirit that cries
We see those that are hungry
But more hungry for love
Where the bullets fly free
And in the cage there’s a dove
We see those that are abused
And of love they have none
And we would give up our life
If it would even save one
We see those who are sick
And suffering pain
They cry out for help
But they cry out in vain
They are robbed by the selfish
Who take all with haste
They leave children with nothing
In world that’s laid waste
We who have love
And see all of these things
Would give to the children
All that love brings
One person can’t save them
But we can all make a start
To put back the Love
That belongs in their heart

My Girl
The angels must have sent you
When you came upon this shore
For you came with so much love
When you knocked on my souls door
You sailed across that sea of love
To find yourself a mum
And I was deeply honoured
For you chose me as the one
I watched you playing as a child
And guarded over you
I watched you grow into a woman
And I’ll always be proud of you
I will always be with you my girl
‘til forever finds an end
You are the love and joy in my life
My daughter and my friend
One day you’ll leave my arms my girl
When that special man comes in your heart
Just remember, no matter where you are in the world
We will never be apart.
