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
