We pray for our fathers, pray for our mothers Wishing our families well We sing songs for the wishing, of those who are kissing But not for the missing
Chorus 1: So this one's for all the lost children This one's for all the lost children This one's for all the lost children, wishing them well And wishing them home
When you sit there addressing, counting your blessings Biding your time When you lay me down sleeping and my heart is weeping Because I'm keeping a place
Chorus 2
For all the lost children This is for all the lost children This one's for all the lost children, wishing them well And wishing them home
Home with their fathers, Snug close and warm, loving their mothers I see the door simply wide open But no one can find thee
Chorus 3
So pray for all the lost children Let's pray for all the lost children Just think of all the lost children, wishing them well This is for all the lost children This one's for all the lost children Just think of all the lost children Wishing them well, and wishing them home
