The Lost Children

Listen to the song

Lyrics

We pray for our fathers
Pray for our mothers
Wishing our families, well
We sing songs for the wishing
Of those who are kissing
But not for the missing

So this one’s for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost children
Wishing them well

[expand title=”See more lyrics” swaptitle=”See less lyrics”]

And wishing them home

When you sit there addressing
Counting your blessings
Biding your time
You lay me down sleeping
My heart is weeping
Because I’m keeping a place

For all the lost children
This is for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost children
Wishing them well
And wishing them home

Home with their fathers
Snug close and warm
Loving their mothers
I see the door simply wide open
But no one can find thee

So pray for all the lost children
Let’s pray for all the lost children
Just think of all the lost children
Wishing them well

This is for all the lost children
This one’s for all the lost children
Just think of all the lost children
Wishing them well
And wishing them home
