Be Still My Child - Ladysmith Black Mambazo, Johnny Clegg

if i never see my name on the tv

if no one ever votes for me

if the world doesnt know my name

if i never reach the hall of fame

im still gods child

god loves me like no one could ever do

god knows my name and i know god’s too

ill forever be the apple of god’s eye

im still gods child and will be even after i die

im still gods child

even when the road ahead gets rough

and i feel like i just had enough

im bruised and broken

and i feel left alone

why me why now my dreams are all gone

but when i pick up the peices i see more clear

gods love is forever and god holds me dear

so come what may i can face this day

jesus wont forsake that is what ill say

im still gods child

god loves me like no one could ever do

god knows my name and i know god’s too

ill forever be the apple of god’s eye

im still gods child and will be even after i die

im still gods child

greater is god thats in me than the one in the world

im wonderfully made

im precious in your sight

I’m beautiful, I’m a conqueror, im victorious

and i like me

for i am

for i am still gods child

god loves me like no one could ever do

god knows my name and i know god’s too

ill forever be the apple of god’s eye

im still gods child and will be even after i die

im still gods child

for i am still gods child

god loves me like no one could ever do

god knows my name and i know god’s too

ill forever be the apple of god’s eye

im still gods child and will be even after i die

im still gods child

child

im still gods child
