He who was like the sun for me
Has gone.
The fair, the smiling face that shone for me
Now gone.
An eclipse has happened suddenly
I sit in the dark and cannot see:
A lost child.
All gone.
 

Please put on the light someone
And come and comfort me.
It's wrong to leave a child alone
Sobbing so bitterly.
What hope has such a little one
Without a tender friend?
Come share my pain an hour or two
And help this heart to mend.
Be at my side and hold me near
For lost love leave it's mark
We are all God's little ones
Sobbing in the dark.
