Hymn for the Adopters
from Greg Atkinson music Hosted by Greg Atkinson
I thought I’d write a song to represent the fantasy that all adopters have regarding a beautifully smooth parenthood and how thankful the adopted child could be. But it tends to be more difficult than that in reality. Tuning is D A D F# A C# with capo on first fret From the first cry out To the final breath I just belong to you Once empty filled by love From my tiny hands To my restless feet I’m made especially For you to keep me safe I would run and hide but I would always try to come and find you In another world I wouldn’t be this lucky so I thank you Trained my eyes to see And warmed my heart to feel I have your lasting love To drive out all my fear Cried myself to sleep But never left your sight You gave me all I have A perfect guide through life I would run and hide but I would always try to come and find you In another world I wouldn’t be this lucky so I thank you When the clouds came rolling in And I was looking for the right direction You were there to comfort me And led me to the safety of your own home I would run and hide but I would always try to come and find you In another world I wouldn’t be this lucky so I thank you From the first cry out To the final breath I Just belong to you Once empty filled by love
