Have You Seen My Son? Lyrics - Benjamin Booker - Benjamin Booker

You told me that the world is full of sinners 

And placed a bible at my feet 

I could hardly understand you 

I had just learned to chew my meat 

I heard that you were calling on The Lord 

Asking for answers, for some relief 

Heard that you were calling out my name, my name 

And you cried for a whole week 

Said "have you seen my son, he's lost in the world somewhere 

I pray for him every day but I know he ain't seeing Your ways 

Is he all right now, is he all right? 

As I got older it never got any better 

Said I'm trying to find some truth in this world 

I know there's things that you won't understand 

I heard that you were calling on The Lord 

Asking for answers, for some relief 

Heard that you were calling out my name, my name 

And you cried for a whole week 

Said "have you seen my son, he's lost in the world somewhere. 

I pray for him every day but I know he ain't seeing Your ways 

All right 

All right 

We fought all the way from Florida 

Now locked into New Orleans 

I said God must love every one 

Even the ones that just loves the least 

They say that when a mother loves a child 

Oh she would do most anything 

I know that I can never make it right 

But it's hard to hear you say it 

Said "have you seen my son, he's lost in the world somewhere. 

I pray for him every day but I know he ain't seeing Your ways 

Is he all right now? 

Is he all right?
