 NOBODY’S CHILD

 (Karen  Young)

As I was slowly passing an orphan’s home one day

And  stopped there for a moment just to watch the children .....

Alone a boy was standing and when I asked him why

He turned with eyes that could not ..... and he began to cry.

I’m nobody child , I’m nobody’s child

Just like a flower I’m growing .....

No mummy’s kisses no daddy ‘s smile

No body .....  me, I’m no body’s child.

People came for children and .....  them for their own

But they all seem to pass me and I am left here all alone

I know they’d like to take me but when they see I’m .....

They always take some other child and I’m left behind.

No mummy’s arms to hold me or to soothe me when I .....

Sometimes it gets so lonely, I wish that I could die

I’d walked the ...... of heaven, where all the blind can see

And just like all the other kids, there’d be a home for me.
