Don't hang your head low 'cause I can't see your face
In your reflection I see your beauty and grace
And when the light shines bright to show you your way do not be weary
Don't turn your head away

So let the critics look upon you with a thousand eyes
And let their tongues do the judging and criticize
And you just sit here before us and reveal your light

Go on
Go on my child

Go on
Go on my child

Your soul is aching and it's dying to be heard
This might be painful but consider the worth
And when you feel like there's nobody on your side
They will embrace you with a radiant smile

So let the critics look upon you with a thousand eyes
And let their tongues do the judging and criticize
And you just sit here before us and reveal your light

Go on
Go on my child

Go on
Go on my child

So you want to give up and you can't find the strength
I believe that you will make it in the end

So you want to stare back and you want to retreat
I believe that there ain't nothing you can't be
Nothing you can't be

Don't feel so naked
I am the blanket of hope
Your words are life rafts and they keep us afloat

And when this long painful journey comes to an end
They will be touched by the message
The message you've sent

So let the critics look upon you with a thousand eyes
And let their tongues do the judging and criticize
And you just sit here before us and reveal your light

Go on
Go on my child

Go on
Go on my child

Go on
Go on my child

Go on
Go on my child

Go on
Go on my child
