[00:00.00]The Poor Orphan Child - The Carter Family
[00:02.02]I hear a low faint voice that says
[00:06.18]Papa and mama's dead
[00:10.36]And it comes from the poor orphan child
[00:14.52]That must be clothed and fed
[00:18.69]And it comes from the poor orphan child
[00:22.82]That must be clothed and fed
[00:27.01]And it comes from the poor orphan child
[00:31.11]That must be clothed and fed
[00:35.25]Savior lead them by the hand
[00:39.79]Savior lead them by the hand
[00:43.50]Savior lead them by the hand
[00:47.90]Till they all reach that glittering strand
[00:52.71]See all the many children now
[00:56.60]Poor little boys and girls
[01:00.63]Who want that mother's loving hand
[01:04.86]To smooth their golden curls
[01:08.91]Who want that mother's loving hand
[01:13.07]To smooth their golden curls
[01:17.15]Who want that mother's loving hand
[01:21.27]To smooth their golden curls
[01:25.58]Savior lead them by the hand
[01:29.76]Savior lead them by the hand
[01:33.83]Savior lead them by the hand
[01:37.99]Till they all reach that glittering strand
[01:43.45]But now we see those wandering curls
[01:47.39]Hang careless 'round their brow
[01:51.42]They say to us my papa's dead
[01:55.56]And I've no mother now
[01:59.60]They say to us my papa's dead
[02:03.78]And I've no mother now
[02:07.82]They say to us my papa's dead
[02:11.94]And I've no mother now
[02:16.15]Savior lead them by the hand
[02:20.29]Savior lead them by the hand
[02:24.34]Savior lead them by the hand
[02:28.57]Till they all reach that glittering strand
[02:33.38]O Savior every orphan bless
[02:37.33]Wherever they may roam
[02:41.36]Bless every hand that lends them aid
[02:45.73]And bless the orphan's home
[02:49.70]Bless every hand that lends them aid
[02:53.90]And bless the orphan's home
[02:57.80]Bless every hand that lends them aid
[03:02.08]And bless the orphan's home
[03:06.03]Savior lead them by the hand
[03:10.25]Savior lead them by the hand
[03:14.34]Savior lead them by the hand
[03:18.58]Till they all reach that glittering strand
