Show them the Way
It is my observation that many of the problems we face in our country as well as the world are a reflection of the breakdown of the family.
The family has always been the essential building block of successful societies and civilizations.
We must return to the indispensable importance
of home and family.

Show them the way
Lyrics
He was alone
Living his life on his own
Knowing that no one is there
Waiting for you
So, he tries to forgive
A father who just went away
A mother doing her best
Raising her son
On her own
We’re turning our backs on the family
And family seems in decline
People believe it’s a thing of the past
And want us to leave it behind
A boy needs a father to help him be strong
To show him what’s right
And know when it’s wrong
To know he belongs
And he’s here to stay
A boy needs a father
To show him the way
She looks for love
But doesn’t know where she fits in
She doesn’t know who she would find
Out on her own
So, she tries to resist
The people dragging her down
The men she doesn’t want
And she doesn’t know
Or love
We’re turning our backs on the family
And family seems in decline
People believe it’s a thing of the past
And want us to leave it behind
A girl needs a mother to help her be strong
To show her what’s right
And know when it’s wrong
To know she belongs
And she’s here to stay
A girl needs a mother
To show her the way
When children get lost
Lost in the dark
We must find them
The world is unkind
And we have to find
A way to bring it back home
Kids need a family
To help them be strong
To show them what’s right
To keep them from harm
To know they belong
To hear what they say
Kids need a family
To show them the way
