(It will be a better world for a little girl)
Mommy, I'm scared by all that I see
When we go out or watch the TV
People are mean, they fight and they lie, tell me why
When I grow up, and you are gone
And I must go out all on my own
What will I do, 'cause I am not strong at all?
Oh Mommy, it's so bad out there
I think that I'll be really scared
Can't you stay with me always
And keep the bad people away?
Can't the good men win instead
Like in the stories that we've read?
Can't it be a better world for a little girl?
The city has so much dirt and noise
Why do the wars kill all the boys?
When Bobby grows up, will he have to go and die?
Mary's dad left her and her mom
Who will take care of them from now on?
Will our daddy stay? Are you also afraid at night?
Oh darling, yes, it's bad out there
And sometimes, even I am scared
But Jesus has a special plan
He holds the world within His hands
Though it's now run by evil men
Very soon, His love will win
And it will be a better world
For a little girl
Oh darling, yes, it's bad out there
And sometimes, even I am scared
That Jesus has a special plan
He holds the world within His hands
Though it's now run by evil men
Very soon, His love will win
And it will be a better world
For a little girl
For a little girl
For a little girl
