alone and scared...
do not stain your precious heart
with treble thoughts...
of why a father would leave his child...
a legacy he left behind...
Dear Fatherless Child...
dry your eyes...
remember the pillar of your soul
that quench the pain and hurt...
has plant the seed of light
in your mothers' love...
No...
it's not your fault...
a man running from his responsibility
for lack of maturity...
Dance Free...
Dance Free...
Fatherless Child...
let your feet
bury a healing into history...
Fatherless Child...
don't tremble...
against the moon's white rising
dance free...
dance free...
move to the rhythm of your
mothers' heartbeat...
Dance Free...
Dance Free...
release and let your hands
break free...
from the chains of a mans' conviction....
Fatherless Child...
without a dad to comfort your human need...
but...fatherless your are not
so...
dance free...
dance free...
let the earth vibrate beneath your feet
as you walk with Jesus...
Dance Free...
Dance Free...
