Motherless Child

Motherless Child – a raw, deeply moving Emotional Vocal Gospel Blues Worship lament. This powerful traditional spiritual pours out the ache of loneliness, abandonment, and longing for home with heartfelt, soul-stirring vocals and tender Delta blues guitar. Sometimes we all feel like a motherless child — far from comfort, far from peace — yet this song turns that pain into honest worship and quiet hope in God. Let the emotion in every note wrap around your weary heart. Whether you’re walking through grief, isolation, or simply longing for the Father’s embrace, this blues prayer reminds you: you are never truly alone. God sees every tear and hears every cry.

Lyrics

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
A long way from home,
A long way from home.

Sometimes I feel like I’m almost gone,
Sometimes I feel like I’m almost gone,
Sometimes I feel like I’m almost gone,
A long way from home,
A long way from home.

True believer, a long way from home,
True believer, a long way from home,
True believer, a long way from home.

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child,
A long way from home,
A long way from home.
