Hello my child I greet you
As you rise from sleep today
I see you as you kneel down
And start to softly pray
You whisper words of caring
For friends both far and near
I’m glad to answer every prayer
That you bring to my ear

Hello my child I’m with you
Please walk with me today
I’ll guide you and protect you
While you walk in my way
I’ll give you strength and power
To do what you must do
I’ll see to it that every trial
Will only strengthen you

Hello my child I’m near you
Please talk with me today
Tell me your troubles and your fear
Then I’ll teach you my ways
You’ll learn of love and beauty
You’ll learn of joy and peace
Then in the end you’ll know the hope
That lasts eternally

Hello my child I love you
And when the hard times come
I’ll carry you through every storm
I’ll help you overcome
I’ll never ever leave you
You never have to fear
For even when it seems I’m gone
I’ll always be right here
