“CRY OF A CHILD”

Can You Hear the Cry of Your Child
While in The Pen and Living So Foul?
Not Being the Father You’re Supposed to Be
Is It Because Of You Not Being So Free?

Can You Hear the Cry of Your Child,
And Can You See the Tears in Their Eyes?
Needing Your Love and Shoulder to Lean On,
But What Are You Doing to Hurry Back Home?

Can You Hear the Cry of Your Child,
While Your Absence Has Removed Their Smile?
With So Much Sorrow and So Much Needless Pain,
Wondering Will Your Ways Ever Change?

Can You Hear the Cry of Your Child,
Although, You’re Separated by So Many Miles?
While You’re Doing the Most and Chasing Drugs,
And We’re at Home Missing You and Your Love!

Can You Hear the Cry of Your Child
As You’re Given into The Devil’s Wiles?
Will You Ever Wipe the Tears from Our Eyes,
Or Can You Even Hear the Cry of Your Child?

Who Can We Blame?

Who Can We Blame for The Situation We’re In,
Is It the Drugs, Your Lover or So-Called Friend?
We Chose to Do the Things That We Have Done
Because We Stopped Trusting in God’s Son!

Who Can We Blame for Being All Alone,
Is It Because Of Our Choices That We’re Wrong?
We Had A Choice to Always Follow Jesus Christ,
Because, If We Had, We Would’ve Done What’s Right!

Who Can We Blame for Losing All That We Had,
Knowing What We Were Doing Was So Bad?
We Chose to Rebel and Willingly Commit Crime,
Knowing That We Would Leave Loved Ones Behind!

Who Can We Blame, For Getting Out of God’s Will,
Was the Greed, The Lust or Those Evil Thrills?
We Chose to Get High Over and Over Again,
Because We Let Go of Jesus Christ’s Hands!

Who Can We Blame for Being in The Pen,
While We Were Out There Living in Sin?
We Chose to Stop Calling Out to Jesus’ Name,

Therefore, My Brothers, Who Can We Blame?
