CHORUS Who is gonna tell the child about Jesus Who is gonna tell the child about God? Well I believe, I believe it's my responsibility to Tell the child about God See that child, standing on the comer, Wondering which way to go Should he go left, should he go right? I believe the child really ought to know now Chorus See that child, his life is a mess You wonder what's inside of his head If someone doesn't tell him 'bout the love of the Lord You know he's gonna wind up dead Chorus Who'll tell the children? Who'll lend a hand? (Who'll lend a hand?) Their way is hopeless Without the Man Think about it Can't you see that boy hanging in the streets Trying to do the best he can? If he only knew he has a Father who cares I believe he'd grow to be a better man Chorus
