Lyrics

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
Oh, will 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?
Well, that's how it feels to watch him go
Down to earth, to a humble birth
And as he goes away, I 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 weak, humble and meek
And as he goes away, I hear my heart say

Repeat chorus
