Raise Him Up

A                      A/C#
When I first met his momma, she was 
just 19
A7                               
Couldn't say for certain who the 
G      D
father was
Bm                                
But I have known him since he was 
  Esus   E
a pup
              D         A    D  A
And I'm gonna raise him up
       A                          
If you never knew your daddy like 
A/C#
I never knew mine
   A7                              
It feels like everybody knows 
  G     D
you're fatherless
     Bm                         
This boy may not be blood of my 
Esus    E
blood
              D         A
But I'm gonna raise him up

        D                    D/A  
I'll provide for him, walk beside 
             A
of him, I am strong enough
           D                   D/A
Cause it's time he knew what a son
               A
 can do with a father's love
E
He can change the world

You have to look at joseph a couple 
thousand years ago
When he held a newborn baby he named
 jesus
He said he may not be blood of my 
blood
Still I'm gonna raise him up

Chorus

33 years later, when the son was in 
his grave
Broken and abandoned by a world he 
came to save
His real dad said he's mine blood of
 my blood
And I'm gonna raise him up


Chorus

And he can change your world
But you gotta raise him up
Raise him up
