Acappella Who Is Gonna Tell the Child? song lyrics

Chorus:

Who is gonna tell the child about Jesus

Who is gonna tell the child about God?

Well I believe, I believe it's my responsibility to

Tell the child about God

See that child, standing on the corner,

Wondering which way to go

Should he go left, should he go right?

I believe the child really ought to know now

Repeat Chorus

See that child, his life is a mess

You wonder what's inside of his head

If someone doesn't tell him 'bout the love of the Lord

You know he's gonna wind up dead

Repeat Chorus (x2)

Who'll tell the children?

Who'll lend a hand? (Who'll lend a hand?)

Their way is hopeless

Without the Man

Think about it (think about it)

Can't you see that boy hanging in the streets

He's trying to do the best he can

If he only knew he has a Father who cares

I believe he'd grow to be a better man

Repeat Chorus (x2)

Who is gonna tell the child about Jesus

Who is gonna tell the child about God?
