Child, I know you're weary   And your eyes want to close   The days are getting longer   We're not getting any stronger   Trust me,  Mama knows   But lie in my arms while you're sleeping   And think of the rivers you've crossed   I'll tell you the dreams I've been keeping   For moments like this   When your hope is lost   Hear my song   It'll help you believe in tomorrow   Hear my song   It'll show you the way you can shine   Hear my song   It was made for the time   When you don't know where to go   Listen to the song that I sing   You'll be fine   Child, I know you're frightened   And your throat's parched and dry   But just trust in Mama's singing   And the gift tomorrow's bringing   Trust it, don't ask why   Just lie in my arms   And I'll tell you   The things that you know but forget   The lies no one ever could sell you   I know that it's hard   But don't give up get   Hear my song   It'll help you believe in tomorrow   Hear my song   It'll show you the way you can shine   Hear my song   It was made for the times   When you don't know where to go   Listen to the song that I sing   You'll be fine   Cause I'll be singing   Hold on   Hold tight   I know it's dark right now   But just believe somehow   That soon there will be light   Hold on   Hold fast   That's not enough for some   But trust the light will come   And we'll get past   You and Mama   Safe at last   Hear my song   It'll help us get through til tomorrow   Hear my song   It'll help us survive all the pain   Hear my song   It's the one thing I have   That has never let you down   Listen to the song that I sing   Listen to the words in my heart   Listen to the hope I can bring   And you'll start to grow   And shine   Listen to the song that I sing   And trust me   We'll be fine   A new world calls across the ocean...
