Daddy had a little boy
His soul was white as snow
He never went to Church
Cause Daddy wouldn't go.

He never learned the Word of God
That thrills the childish mind
While other children went to church
This child was left behind.

As he grew from babe to youth
Dad saw to his dismay
A soul that once was snowy white
Become a dingy gray.

Realizing that his son was lost
Dad tried to win him back
But now the soul that once was white
Had turned an ugly black.

Dad even started back to church
And Bible study too
He even begged the preacher, "Isn't there
A thing that you can do".

The preacher tried, failed and said,
"We're just too far behind
I tried to tell you years ago,
But you would never mind".

And so, another soul was lost
Instead of white as snow.
Church might have made the difference
But Daddy wouldn't go.
