You're on the same road as when Jesus was
you do the best you can and that's all anyone does
so bless you my child
bless you my child
when it comes time to die, be sure to go to heaven... yea
now I know there's been trouble, loneliess and pain
they left you standing naked in the cold and pouring rain
so bless you my child
bless you my child
I know it sounds funny, but make sure you go to heaven... yea
father, forgive me all that I do
I'm a pitiful being compared to you
every thought I have is useless
and the works I do are worse
I'm an unsignificant creature in a second-rate universe
you won't achieve perfection
you don't know what is true
your words will be forgotten soon as your life is through
well, bless you my child
sure, bless you my child
give up and quit bitchin'
make sure you go to heaven... yea
father, forgive me but don't forget
I haven't lived a half a billion years yet
I'm at a disadvantage: you hear me clear
but you haven't said a word to me in 43 years
We're in this together; there's a perfect plan
we have to face forever as a mere mortal can
so bless you my child
bless you my child
if you have to go, make sure you go to heaven... yea
You're on the same road as when Jesus was
you do the best you can and that's all anyone does
so bless you my child
bless you my child
when it comes time to die, make sure you to go to heaven... yea
