Child Lyrics

I gaze in your eyes, and wonder
What thoughts are hiding behind them.
Your lips form a smile,
And laughter begins to shatter the silence.
A gentle breeze embraces you
From your feet to your feather-like hair.
Yet deep within you a power swells:
To reveal, to foretell.

You're a child, tomorrow rests upon you!
You're a child, let all the world learn from you!
You're a child, teach us to love and protect you,
To forgive, to have hope, to be true!

You see with a heart that knows
How to trust in life and its meaning.
You hear with a soul,
A soul that's never learned to stop yearning.

You share the joy of the morning star,
As it shines on a day so fair.
And where's there's happiness in the air,
You are there, you are there!

You're a child, tomorrow rests upon you!
You're a child, let all the world learn from you!
You're a child, teach us to love and protect you,
To forgive, to have hope, to be true!

Yet deep within you a power swells: to reveal, to foretell!

You're a child, tomorrow rests upon you!
You're a child, let all the world learn from you!
You're a child, teach us to love and protect you,
To forgive, to have hope, to be true!

You're a child! You're a child! You're a child!
