Help Me Daddy

Help me daddy The child cried out “I’ve lost my way She does shout Help me daddy I can’t see Where are you daddy Please come to me Help me daddy I can’t hear I know you speak Why aren’t you near Help me daddy I’m sinking fast Muddy quick sand Is my cast Help me daddy My head is spinning Oh’ this fear Is surely winning Help me daddy I’m going down I just give up You won’t come around Oh well, dear dad It’s just too late In this pain I’ll die, my fate O’ My beloved child I tried to help I heard the first time That you did yelp O’ My beloved child You passed me by Every time That you did cry O’ My beloved child I died for you To give you strength And help you through O’ My beloved child I left my word I paid the price For all incurred O My beloved child I sent my best I gave you everything So you could rest! My heart so aches For you my child For by the Enemy You were beguiled By the bed Where you just died Were all my answers To the prayers you cried! Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
