By Michael Jackson

We pray for our fathers, pray for our mothers 

Wishing our families well 

We sing songs for the wishing, of those who are kissing 

But not for the missing 

Chorus 1: 

So this one's for all the lost children 

This one's for all the lost children 

This one's for all the lost children, wishing them well 

And wishing them home 

When you sit there addressing, counting your blessings 

Biding your time 

When you lay me down sleeping and my heart is weeping 

Because I'm keeping a place 

Chorus 2 

For all the lost children 

This is for all the lost children 

This one's for all the lost children, wishing them well 

And wishing them homeHome with their fathers, 

Snug close and warm, loving their mothers 

I see the door simply wide open 

But no one can find thee

Chorus 3 

So pray for all the lost children 

Let's pray for all the lost children 

Just think of all the lost children, wishing them well 

This is for all the lost children 

This one's for all the lost children 

Just think of all the lost children 

Wishing them well, and wishing them home
