lyrics version 1
Oh little sister have I caused you to cry
For some omission of which I know not
I love you so much, my life down I would lie
Deep love of which the kind our father has taught
Oh little sister have I led you to pain
By dark and wrongly spoken words aloud
Which made you weep or made you suffer in vain
'Twas done in error, not by my head unbowed
Our dear father watches over us
And he will ease our plight
Do not lose the hope he's given you
Nor let your peace disappear into the night
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
Oh little sister [x2]
For some omission of which I know not
I love you so much, my life down I would lie
Deep love of which the kind our father has taught
Oh little sister have I led you to pain
By dark and wrongly spoken words aloud
Which made you weep or made you suffer in vain
'Twas done in error, not by my head unbowed
Our dear father watches over us
And he will ease our plight
Do not lose the hope he's given you
Nor let your peace disappear into the night
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
Oh little sister [x2]

Oh little sister have I caused you to cry
For some omission of which I know not
I love you so much, my life down I would lie
Deep love of which the kind our saviour has taught
Oh little sister have I led you to pain
By dark and wrongly spoken words aloud
Which made you weep or made you suffer in vain
'Twas done in error, not by my head unbowed
Our dear father watches over us
And surely he will ease our plight
Do not lose the hope he's given you
Nor let peace disappear from sight, oh
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
Our dear father watches over us
And surely he will ease our plight
Do not lose the hope he's given you
Nor let peace disappear from sight
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
A-oam oam bome hmm mmm

Nor let peace disappear from sight, oh
Oh little sister have I caused you to sin
Or brought transgression somehow into your home
So many places now my journey has been

Our dear father watches over us
And surely he will ease our plight
Do not lose the hope he's given you
Nor let peace disappear from sight

So many places now my journey has been
Shall I forever through this wide world roam
A-oam oam bome hmm mmm
Ooh ah la la la
