Mike Love - Children of the Heart (Lyrics)



Run come quick, you better run fast to Daddy
And run come, come, you better come quick to Mommy
'Cause there’s a fire on the mountain burning bright
We’re gonna have a revelation tonight
So run come quick, you better run fast to Daddy

This is a warning to all the nations
Don’t turn your back on the vampire
A simple warning to all of my people
This is a desperate and dark hour

We got to teach them Love now
In this crucial time that we’re living in
Jah, we got to lift them up
And pierce down to the heart of the matter, yeah
We got to Love them and teach them
To reach for Mount Zion

Children of the heart, Jah bless you
And though the devil may try to come tempt you and test you
You will find yourself somewhere along the way
And if ever you find you’re lonely
Just remember you can always call on your family
Call and we will be right there when the skies are grey
We’ll never be far away

So run come quick, you better run fast to Daddy
And run come, come, you better come quick to Mommy

Children, children
Come from the womb to be born again and defend
Children of the indigo heart
Ever, forever will never be torn asunder
Children of the crystal heart
Jah is watching over you
Jah Love is gonna bring you through

This is a warning to all the nations
Don't turn your back on the vampire
A simple warning to all of my people, yo
This is a desperate and dark hour
'Cause round the corner there
It’s madness everywhere

I know you’ve seen your share of violence too
Brothers killing brothers
Sisters broken, twisted
Products of a broken system you know so

Run come quick, you better run fast to Daddy
We got to teach them to reach for the heights, Iyah
We got to lift up their hearts to Mount Zion
'Cause only truth for the youth is a must, Babylon
So let the sheep sleep and wake up the lion

Run come quick, you better run fast to Daddy
And run come, come, you better come quick to Mommy
'Cause there's a fire on the mountain burning bright
We're gonna have a revelation tonight
So run come quick, you better run fast...
