I was there to give your name, I was only a kid myself!
And I was lost when you went away, that moment of living hell!
Phone calls to hear your voice, this isn't what you deserve!
But a father's love never dissipates, I swore that you'd come back to me!
Dark night, I'm weary, but I'll stay awake!
No sleep from my eyes!
Didn't I, didn't I say, you'll get no sleep from me!
Didn't I, didn't I tell you, I am a patient man
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait!
Didn't I, didn't I say, you'll get no sleep from me!
Ten years I have stayed, it's felt like a lifetime!
You are shining destiny, you're part of a dynasty!
I've fought for you and I've prayed, this intercession has cost blood!
I believe in you, you've found your way, just one way
And now you're on a journey with me!
Dark night, I'm weary, I swore I'd stay awake
Didn't I, didn't I say, you'll get no sleep from me!
Didn't I, didn't I tell you, I am a patient man
I'll wait, I'll wait, I'll wait!
Didn't I, didn't I say, you'll get no sleep from me!
When you pass through the waters I will be with you
When you walk on the waves you won't be swept away
When you pass through the waters I will be with you
When you look in my eyes you'll see that I'm awake
When you pass through the waters I will be with you
A father is always a watchman!
When you walk on the waves you won't be swept away
My child, protected, I'm looking out!
When you pass through the waters I will be with you
A father, a daughter, a watchman!
When you look in my eyes you'll see that I'm awake
All my watchmen, stay up!
