Rock You Tender

I'm gonna rock you child

I'm gonna rock you tender

I'll sing a song of mine

Will make you feel so tender

I hold you tight and keep my fears at bay

When I was just a child

My life was not so tender

They wouldn't sing to me

And though I still remember

Hard times that I've been through

Are not for you

There's folks and books that say

That all the sins of the father

Can never be washed away

Will haunt his sons and daughters

But now I know they're wrong

You make me strong

So many fears inside

No matter how I tried

Cold eyes of tempered steel

Will always be remembered

But you have helped me find

My peace of mind

I wonder at my love

And every day I crave

This trusting light I see in your tender face

You're the only grace I've found

You're the only grace I've found
