Go On My Child

Don't hang your head low

Cause I can't see your face

In your reflection

I see your beauty and grace

And when the light shines bright

To show you your way

Do not be weary, don't turn your head away

So let the critics look upon you, with a thousand eyes

And let their tongues do the judging and criticize

And you just sit here before us and reveal your light

Go on, go on my child (2X)

Your soul is aching

And its dying to be heard

This might be painful but consider the worth

And when you feel like there's nobody on your side

They will embrace you with a radiant smile

So let the critics look upon you, with a thousand eyes

And let their tongues do the judging and criticize

And you just sit here before us and reveal your light

Go on, go on my child (2X)

So you want to give up and you can't find the strength

I believe that you will make it in the end

So you want to stare back and you want to retreat

I believe that there ain't nothing you can't be

Nothing you can't be

Don't feel so naked

I am the blanket of hope

Your words are life rafts

And they keep us afloat

And when this long painful journey comes to an end

They will be touched by the message, the message you've sent

So let the critics look upon you, with a thousand eyes

And let their tongues do the judging and criticize

And you just sit here before us and reveal your light

Go on, go on my child (5X)
