Like a Child
Like a child, I come to You
Trusting with my heart
Your love and compassion
You knew me from the start
~
Like a child, I whisper to You
Prayers from my spirit
Sent to your heavenly throne
And I know you’ll listen
~
Like a child, I wait for You
To guide me through
When I’m lost and alone
You answer me anew
~
Like a child, I compare You
With my parents here on earth
But they cannot equal You
Despite knowing me at birth
~
Like a child, I confide in You
My secret yearnings and dreams
Always aware of Your gifts
Always loving and joyful it seems
~
Like a child, I plan with You
For great moments in the future
Even though they’re here now
Those days that are quite sooner
~
Like a child, I long for You
The Master of all my life
To be as close as possible
Much dearer than a wife
~
Like a child, I know that You
Will stay with me throughout
Giving me a friend so true
That I’m feeling totally devout
~
Like a child, I hope that You
Will never leave my side
And you promised me to stay
With you I can always abide
~
Like a child, I love You
More than I can say
With love that is alive
And love that will not sway
