"Wonderful / Song For Children"

Wonderful

She belongs there left with her liberty
Never known as a nonbeliever
She laughs and stays in her one-one-one-wonderful

She knew how to gather the forest when
God reached softly and moved her body
One golden locket
Quite young and loved by her mother and father

Farther down the path was a mystery
Through the recess the chalk and numbers
Her boy bumped into her one-one-one-wonderful

All fall down and lost in the mystery
Lost it all to a non-believer
And all that's left is a girl
Who's loved by her mother and father

She'll return in love with her liberty
Just away from her non-believer
She'll sigh and thank God for one-one-one-wonderful

Song for Children

Maybe not one
Maybe you too
Wonderin'
Wonderin' who
Wonderful you
A-wonderin'

Child - the child
Father of the son

Where is the father, Son
Where is the wonderful me?
Wonderful you

Though I know I'm won't to wonderin'
Never mind wonderful you
I can't stop a-wondering
Never you mind, wonderful you

Child - the child
Father of the son

Child - the child
Father of the son
