Don't you listen to the never

Keep praying for rain

Dancing for rain little girl by the drain

Motherless child, rescue rescue

Don't you listen to the never

Keep praying for rain

Dancing for rain with your doll by the drain

Motherless child, rescue rescue

Keep your ear to the shell, keep your ear to the shell

Stay on the path that leads to the well

There are many take the one that leads to the well

rescue rescue

Keep your ear to the shell, keep your ear to the shell

Motherless child does thou believe

That thine afflictions have caused us to grieve?

Motherless child angels wear clothes

Their eyes now are swollen and exposed

Don't you listen to the never

Keep praying for rain

Dancing for rain, no sweet for the pain of a motherless child

Rescue rescue

Keep your ear to the shell, keep your ear to the shell

Stay on the path that leads to the well

There are many, take the one that leads to the well

Motherless child, follow my voice

And I shall give thee great cause to rejoice

Motherless child, be of good cheer

My arm is reached out, I am here

I'll crush every doubt and every fear

Clothesline the shame and you will answer to the rain

Wonderful wonderful, wonderful wonderful

Motherless child I am with thee, thou wast never alone

Maybe I'm dirty, maybe I'm unworthy

Motherless child, can you hear me? I will give you a home

Wonderful wonderful, wonderful wonderful

Motherless child I am with thee, thou wast never alone

Maybe I'm dirty, maybe I'm unworthy

Motherless child, can you hear me? I will give you a home

You were never alone
