I Am a Child

I am a child Lost and afraid Walking in a wilderness Without any aid A voice came from Heaven Comforting and low Saying, I'll walk by your side Where ere, you may go I'll hold your hand and kiss your cheek Knowing as a child you are mild and meek I'll tell you stories old, but true Those told by my Father and now I tell you While walking in shadows, be not afraid I will be there, to come to your aid I'll surround you with peace and, also with love And strength I will give you, from Heaven above You're important to me I really do care I'd miss you my child If you were not there In time when you need me I'm as close as can be It takes just a minute To get down on your knee My father and I Will always stand by Should troubles befall you On us, please rely!
