Childlike Faith (Piano Version) Lyrics

I wish that I could learn to love You like a child

Reach out my heart and let me heart run wild

But fear has made the boy inside me hide away

So now I turn to You and don't know what to say

But the longer that I pray for this I realize

It's painted in the magic of my baby's eyes

He runs to me arms open and sits down on my knee

Saying "Daddy how I love you, spend a little time with me"

And a little time is all that I am given

To understand what You would have me do

So as I stumble through the grown-up life I'm living

May I hold on to a childlike faith in You

A childlike faith in the rising of the Son

And a cross that means my life has just begun

For there is more than this and like a child I run

To my Father's arms again

I wish that I could learn to let go of my pride

Empty myself let more of You inside

'Cause I'm so full of nothing that I want to keep

And with every trial there is pain that runs so deep

But the longer that I pray through this I've come to see

I'm still Your child and that's what I will always be

Beyond the man I am and all the things I do

I need to feel Your presence Lord and spend more time with You

A childlike faith in the rising of the Son

And a cross that means my life has just begun

For there is more than this and like a child I run

To my Father's arms again

A childlike faith in the rising of the Son

And a cross that means my life has just begun

For there is more than this and like a child I run

To my Father's arms again
