[Verse 1]
The Bible never said to let go of your childhood,
Instead, it tells us to embrace the child inside.
Christ is here within you now, a light so pure and good,
He walks beside you, always by your side.
[Pre-Chorus]
We can merge with the Father, for in Christ He is found,
No matter what you’ve suffered, it was never His fault.
Now the Son is the Father, and the Father’s the Son,
One in love, one in hope, one in all.
[Chorus]
The substance of things hoped for,
Wanted in our hearts before the light.
In the darkness, light was found,
And the Father is the same in both the day and night.
[Verse 2]
Look inside, the child still sings,
With a voice so clear and bright.
Christ, the Father, Spirit swells,
In the morning until the night.
[Bridge]
No matter where you wander,
No matter what you’ve known,
You’re never truly separated,
You’re never left alone.
[Chorus (repeat)]
The substance of things hoped for,
Wanted in our hearts before the light.
In the darkness, light was found,
And the Father is the same in both day and night.
[Verse 1]
The Bible never said to let go of your childhood,
Instead, it tells us to embrace the child inside.
Christ is here within you now, a light so pure and good,
He walks beside you, always by your side.
[Verse 2]
Look inside, the child still sings,
With a voice so clear and bright.
Christ, the Father, Spirit swells,
In the morning until the night.
Bridge:
No mountain high, no valley low,
Can separate me from this flow,
Eternal love, forever near,
Embraces me and draws me near.
Chorus (Repeat):
The Father and the Son are one with me,
United in a bond so deep and free,
Through every storm, in light or shade,
A love so strong, it will never fade.
[Verse 1]
The Bible never said to let go of your childhood,
Instead, it tells us to embrace the child inside.
Christ is here within you now, a light so pure and good,
He walks beside you, always by your side.
[Pre-Chorus]
We can merge with the Father, for in Christ He is found,
No matter what you’ve suffered, it was never His fault.
Now the Son is the Father, and the Father’s the Son,
One in love, one in hope, one after all.
