Hallelujah
hallelujah
God bless the child
who suffers
Hallelujah
hallelujah
God bless the young
without mothers
This child is homeless
That child's on crack
One plays with a gun
While the other takes
a bullet in his back
This boy's a beggar
That girl sells her soul
They both work
the same street
The same hell hole
Hallelujah
hallelujah
God bless the child
who suffers
Hallelujah
hallelujah
Let every man help
his brother
Some are born addicted
and some are just
thrown away
Some have daddies who
make them play games
they don't want to play
But with hope and faith
We must understand
All God's children
need is love
And us to hold their
little hands
This boy is hungry
he ain't got enought
to eat
That girl's cold
and she ain't got
no shoes on her feet
When a child's
spirit's broken
And feels all hope
is gone
God help them find
the strength to carry on
But with hope and faith
We can understand
All God's children
need is love
And us to hold their
little hands
Hallelujah
hallelujah
God bless the child
who suffers
