A child

Listening a lot to Ellie Holcomb, and thinking about being a child of God

Remind me how to trust as child
This world gets big, and my problems seem to make me mad
Where did my child like faith go, I had it once but then the world tried to take it away
A child plays in the puddles, and laughs at the smallest of things

I’m a child of God, you are my father
I’m a child of God, you are my creator
I’m a child of God, you are my forever
I’m a child of God, and how easily I tend to forget as I get older

Hold me as I try to sleep, because it’s been so hard for me lately
Hold me as my heart seems like it’s breaking
Hold me as my hands are shaking and my feet may stumble
Hold me as my mind tends to wander, but you remind me gently I am safe

My life is full of tomorrows, because I have the hope in your promises
My mind is thinking of what I can make for you, but you’re already proud of me
My life is special to you, because my God has made me his masterpiece
On the days that I forget, help me remember that I am yours
