Calling My Children Home

(início)

D
Those lives were mine to love and cherish.
                                 A
To guard and guide along life's way.
          D
Oh God forbid that one should perish.
                          A
That one alas should go astray.
(Verse 2)
D
Back in the years with all together,
                                A
Around the place we'd romp and play.
           D
So lonely now and oft' times wonder,
             A                    D
Oh will they come back home some day.
(Chorus)
D
I'm lonesome for my precious children,
                 A
They live so far away.
             D
Oh may they hear my calling... Calling..
               A         D
And come back home some day.
(Verse 3)
D
I gave my all for my dear children,
                                  A
Their problems still with love I share,
                   D
I'd brave life's storm, defy the tempest
               A             D
To bring them home from anywhere.
(Verse 4)
D
I lived my life my love I gave them,
                                      A
To guide them through this world of strife,
            D
I hope and pray we'll live together,
               A               D
In that great glad here after life.
(Chorus)
D
I'm lonesome for my precious children,
                  A
They live so far away.
             D                                          A         D
Oh may they hear my calling... Calling.. And come back home some day.
