Have You Seen My Son?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You told me that the world is full of sinners
And placed a bible at my feet
I could hardly understand you
I had just learned to chew my meat
I heard that you were calling on The Lord
Asking for answers, for some relief
Heard that you were calling out my name, my name
And you cried for a whole week
Said "have you seen my son, he's lost in the world somewhere
I pray for him every day but I know he ain't seeing Your ways
Is he all right now, is he all right?
As I got older it never got any better
Said I'm trying to find some truth in this world
I know there's things that you won't understand
I heard that you were calling on The Lord
Asking for answers, for some relief
Heard that you were calling out my name, my name
And you cried for a whole week
Said "have you seen my son, he's lost in the world somewhere.
I pray for him every day but I know he ain't seeing Your ways
All right
All right
We fought all the way from Florida
Now locked into New Orleans
I said God must love every one
Even the ones that just loves the least
They say that when a mother loves a child
Oh she would do most anything
I know that I can never make it right
But it's hard to hear you say it
Said "have you seen my son, he's lost in the world somewhere.
I pray for him every day but I know he ain't seeing Your ways
Is he all right now?
Is he all right?
