Samuel, will you lend me your ear?
This is the voice of your father here
If I speak the word and no one has the vision
Can I count on you, my sweet child to listen?
Samuel, lend me your ear

Cause the whole world's in love with you baby
I am in love with you child
You are so meek and mild
You are holy child
Samuel, lend me your ear

Samuel, will you lend me your ear?
The truth is not always how things appear
So listen with your heart, listen to the spirit
Listen to my voice child and you will hear it
Samuel, lend me your ear

Cause the whole world's in love with you baby
I am in love with you child
You are so meek and mild
You are holy child
Samuel, lend me your ear

There will be days you feel like flying
Then there'll be days you feel like crying
Never give up, never stop trying
Never believe my love is dying

Cause when the whole world is through with you baby
I will still love you, my child
You are so meek and mild
You are a holy child
Samuel, lend me your ear
