Train up a child in the way that he should go that he will never depart.
Train up a child in the way and she will grow with the word in her
heart.
Feed them truth, guide the way, teach them promises God has made,
That they may live in God’s love and grace.
Train up a child as you teach him right from wrong, as he follows the
word.
Train up a child as you lead her to be strong, be strong in the Lord.
Feed them truth, guide the way, teach them promises God has made,
That they may live in God’s love and grace.
Many voices call, many things may draw them far away.
Though their paths may go far away from home,
The word shall remain, the word will remain in their hearts.
Train up a child; your rewards will go beyond the days you live.
Raise them in love; generations will be blest by the love that you
give.
Feed them truth, show the way, teach the promises God has made,
That they will carry on to train up a child, to train up a child,
And they will live in God’s love forever.
