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!
