Wednesday's Woe Mourning Song: Where Do We Go Now, Sweet child o' mine? ~by Angie Bennett Prince





Wednesday's Woe

Mourning Song:


Where Do We Go Now, Sweet child o' mine?


~by Angie Bennett Prince


inspired after hearing Sheryl Crow's song, "Sweet Child O' Mine"





"Sweet child o' mine

Sweet love of mine,


"Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go

Sweet child o' mine?"


Where do we go, child?

Where do we go now?

For no one wants to hear...

But we still miss you anyhow.


Your smile lit up our days

Made life... light up like the sky

Oh to "see" your face

Makes me mourn for those precious days,

And it leaves me wondering why...


"Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go

Sweet child o' mine?"


Where do we go child?

Where do we go now?

Where do those... the "mad-at-God," go?

No one wants to hear it anyhow...


"Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go

Sweet child o' mine?"


Where do we go child?

Where do we go now?

Where do we, the "hurt-with-God," go...

Crying out every time, as on our knees we bow...?


"Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go

Sweet child o' mine?"


Where do we go child?

Where do we go now?

Our lives have stopped

For our hearts e'er pine...


"Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go

Sweet child o' mine?


"Sweet child o' mine

Sweet love of mine


"Where do we go?

Where do we go now?

Where do we go

Sweet child o' mine?"


Only our God knows,

Save us Lord Divine,

As we ever miss her, this...

Sweet child o' mine...

Sweet love o' mine...

O save us, Lord Divine!


O Lord,

Into Your arms we fly,

O save us till we die!


For ev'ryday feels like we're dying on the vine...

O save us, Lord Divine!


Where do we go?

Into Your arms divine,

As we miss this sweet child o' mine.

Where do we go

But into Your arms

We're a dry branch on the Vine.

O save us Lord, Our Vine.
