Like a child,
Innocent and sweet,
May I listen to You
Humbly at Your feet.
Wide-eyed and amazed,
Faithful and full of love,
Like a child may I look
Always Above.
Longing for You,
For Your protection and care,
Like a child may I cling
Keeping You to me near.
When You call my name,
May I hear home in Your voice;
Like a child running home,
In You may I rejoice.
When I fall and stumble
May I run quickly to You,
Like a child may I trust
In all that You do.
When victory I see,
May I know ‘tis not my own;
Like a child may I recall
I work never alone.
When darkness enshrouds,
When sun embraces with light,
Like a child may I see You
In day and in night.
Yea, like a child,
My Lord, ever may I be;
Yea, I am Your child
For all eternity.
Wide-eyed and amazed,
I marvel at Your love;
Like a child I look to Abba,
My Father Above.
How thankful I am, Lord,
That You and I did meet;
May I be Your child forever,
Innocent and sweet.

Purposeful Pathway
And Jesus called a little child unto him,
and set him in the midst of them,
And said, Verily I say unto you,
Except ye be converted,
and become as little children,
ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Whosoever therefore shall humble himself
as this little child, the same
is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
And whoso shall receive one such
little child in my name receiveth me.
Matthew 18:2-5 (KJV)
