Where is the child that I knew
And whatever happened to
The brokendown scared little boy
Who was grateful to be
Forgiven of all his mistakes
Able to live under grace
Happy to see what would come
Like a gift from above
CHORUS:
If I give in
If I let go of what I know then
Hope fades away within
If I give in
I know better, still I let it
Take my peace away
I have this desire within
To do what is good, what is pure
To live everyday in the strength
Of the bright morning star
To live in the Spirit of God
To say something honest in truth
Well, I’m not giving up
I’m just trying to understand
