Elijah's Tomb - Oh My Child Lyrics

Oh My Child
(verse I)

At the bar he drinks his sorrows away
He can't live with himself, there's too much pain
Broken wedding vows ripped his world apart
Now he empties a bottle to fill his heart
He held true to every word he ever said
And now the lies of his ex-wife ring in his head
When she finally left, she confirmed his fears
He wonders how many men, how many years

(chorus)

Oh my child, I love you
Oh my child, I died
to pay for your sin
That's why I was crucified (John 3:16)
Oh my child, I love you
Oh my child, I died
to heal your heart
and take the pain you have inside (Isaiah 53:5)

(verse II)

The tears she cries wash the blood on her face
Daddy's little girl, Daddy's big disgrace
Looking for a love to fill her heart
But they use her body and tear her soul apart
She has nowhere to go
She's all alone living in this broken home
Why did her mom have to leave her dad?
What did she do to make her life so bad?
