Sometimes I Feel Like A Motherless Child

Sometimes I wish I could fly ...

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Long way from my home

Sometimes I wish I could fly

Like a bird up in the sky

Oh, sometimes I wish I could fly

Like a bird up in the sky

Sometimes I wish I could fly

Like a bird up in the sky

A little closer to home

Motherless children have such a hard time

Motherless children have such a hard time

Motherless children have such a really hard time

A long way from home

Sometimes I feel like freedom is near

Sometimes I feel like freedom is near

Sometimes I feel like freedom is so near

But we're so far from home

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Baby sometimes I feel like a motherless child

Sometimes I feel like a motherless

Long way from home

Sometimes I feel like it's close at hand

Sometimes I feel that the Kingdom is at hand

Sometimes I feel like the Kingdom is now

But we're so far from home

A little closer to my home ...
