Where Do They Go |
LyricsWHERE THEY DO GO?intro Now I lay me down to sleep Pray the lord my soul to keep.If I die before I wake Pray the lord my soul to take. Amen Verse: Do you hear the silent cry of the unborn soul from the mother's womb being torn Little children snatched from their beds they are afraid to lay down their heads Chorus: Where do they go the innocent soul? Their lives were cut short now They will never grow old The innocent soul where do they go? Verse: Kids can't even go to the candy store Another child caught in the crossfire Broken hearted mothers cry how many more Another stray bullet has changed so many lives Chorus: Where do they go the innocent soul? Their lives were cut short now They will never grow old The innocent soul where do they go? Bridge: The angel with tears in his eyes quickly takes away the innocent one from earth to heaven he flies into Jesus' arm he places the child, Into Jesus' arm he places the child Chorus: Where do they go the innocent soul? Their lives were cut short now They will never grow old What about the babies? Where do they go the innocent soul? Their lives were cut short now They will never grow old Where do they go the innocent soul The innocent soul where do they go? |
| Short Song Description: This is a song of hope for those facing senseless death of a young child due to violence. |
| Story Behind the Song: This song was written for a movie opportunity involving the death of innocent children. However, I did not want it to be a dark hopeless song and hopefully I achieved that goal of offering a sense of hope during hopeless times. |
