Verse 1:

What's in the father's mind

Why does he have to go

And if I can't go with him

There's one thing I must know



Chorus:

Will they love him

Will they love him like I do? 

Will they serve him

Take care of him like I do? 



I'm afraid to watch him go

Afraid their hearts aren't true

Ohwill they love him

Love him like I do? 



Verse 2:

What can you say when all is lost

When the light of day has gone away? 

Wellthat's how it feels to watch him go

Down to earthto a humble birth

And as he goes awayI hear my heart say



Repeat chorus



Verse 3:

How can we sing when he is gone

We've lost everything when we've lost our king

And why does he go just like a man

Small and weakhumble and meek

And as he goes awayI hear my heart say



Repeat chorus
