Lyrics
-
I am a child of God,
And he has sent me here,
Has given me an earthly home
With parents kind and dear.
[Chorus]
Lead me, guide me, walk beside me,
Help me find the way.
Teach me all that I must do
To live with him someday.
-
I am a child of God,
And so my needs are great;
Help me to understand his words
Before it grows too late.
-
I am a child of God.
Rich blessings are in store;
If I but learn to do his will,
I’ll live with him once more.
-
I am a child of God.
His promises are sure;
Celestial glory shall be mine
If I can but endure.
