Teddy Pendergrass - My Father's Child lyrics

rate me

There comes a time

When a man has to answer

For the things that he's done

No one to, no one can answer to

No one but the Man up above

See I have to live my life

But when it's all said and done

No matter what no one says

I'm still my Father's child

Oh yes, I am

And I know He'll take good care me

I'm still my Father's child

Oh yes, I am

I know, I know that He will

Take good care of me

When I'm alone

And I need someone that I can talk to

I hold, I hold out my hand

And I know I can say

I can say anything that's on my mind

Oh yes, I can, alright

See when things are going wrong

And there's trouble in my life

See I call out His name 'cause I know

I'm still my Father's child

Oh yes, I am, alright

And I know He'll take good care me

See, I'm still my Father's child

Oh yes, I am

I just wanna testify

He will, He will

Take good care of me, oh yeah

Anything I can ever need, that He's there

My Father, my Father

He carries me on His shoulder

And when I'm weak

He lifts me up, lifts me up

'Cause I'm still my Father's child, oh yeah

And I know that He's a part of me

No matter what I do, no matter what I say

I know, I know that He will

Take good care of me

I'm my Father's child, oh yeah

I'm still my Father's child

Even when I'm up and even when I'm down

I?m still my Father's child, oh yeah

All I have to do is say

Father, Father

Father's child, Father, Father

Father's child, Father's child

Father's child
