Gottalife Singers - Teach me Lord to be thankful Lyrics

Verse 1
There is a child standing alone
She has no place that she can call home
She looks around with tears in her eyes
So lost and lonely
She has no bed to sleep in tonight
No mum and dad to kiss her goodnight
All she has left is the memories she holds
So lost and so alone

Chorus
Teach me Lord and help me to see
All of the good things you've given to me
For my home and the love that is shared
For everything that I have
Teach me Lord to be thankful.

Verse 2
There is a boy caught in a war
He shakes with fear as the missiles fall
He cries for help but nobody hears
So lost and lonely
There is a man roaming the streets
Searching through bins
For something to eat
All he has left is the memories he holds
So lost and so alone.

Middle 8
Teach me Lord to grow with a heart of
Compassion
Help me Lord to help somebody in need
Teach me Lord to reach out my hands
To the lost and the lonely
And make this world a better place to be

Verse 3
There is a child standing alone
She has no place that she can call home
All she has left is the memories she holds
So lost and so alone,
So lost and so alone,
So lost and so alone.
