Oh, little light Sweet little child Brought into this world Helpless small soul Naked and cold So much warmth you need
Oh, little light Poor little child Too easy you were made They owned no mind Nor know a heart They do not care for your pain
Most heartbreaking sight See the fright In the eyes of a tormented child When I see in my mind I cannot bear their cries Oh, could I save all those innocent lives
Oh, little light Dead little child They blew out your flame Where are you now? Have you found love? Has your soul left your lonely grave?
How could there be such deeds? Oh, could I curse such fiends! Be they haunted eternally!
Don't give me excuse 'Cause nothing can make right Hurting a helpless child
