A Child, No more, I am

My memories hold me hostage.
I cannot break free.

I struggle with what could have been
And what will never be.

Why can't I forget the past...
The things that cause me pain.

Why do I remember?
Why do I remain?

Why do I remain a child
Who cannot see the light?

When angels all around me
Tell me "It's all right."

"Be quiet now and listen
to what God has to say"...

My angels hold me up
And help me listen when I pray.

For God knows what's inside my heart
and He knows my every fear.

If I can only listen
Then He will bring me near.

Near to Him, I find my way
While searching for a place,

A peaceful place inside my soul
Til I can touch His face.

Closer now...I feel to Him
A child, no more, I am.

For I have grown in grace and love
A child, no more, I am.
