Jump
I knew it wasn't Everest,
But it sure seemed high to me.
And though only 5 years old,
I shimmied up that tree
Halfway up I looked down,
It seemed a mile away
I still recall the fear I felt,
Like it was yesterday
Daddy came running,
When he heard my cry,
And he told me he has his arms open wide
Jump!
Child I will catch you,
I will not let you
Slip through my arms,
Ohhhhhh
Jump!
Don't think about it,
Don't ever doubt it,
There's no need to fear
I'm standing right here
Jump.
Today, I'm still climbing,
Reaching for my dreams,
And though I'm older now,
There's still a child in me
And I have these moments,
Every now and then,
It seems I'm all by myself
Stuck out on a limb
But there's a father up in heaven
That hears my cry
And he tells me he has his arms open wide
Jump!
Child I will catch you,
I will not let you
Slip through my arms,
Ohhhhhh
Jump!
Don't think about it,
Don't ever doubt it,
There's no need to fear
I'm standing right here
Jump.
Jump!
Child I will catch you,
I will not let you
Slip through my arms,
Ohhhhhh
Jump!
Don't think about it,
Don't ever doubt it,
There's no need to fear
I'm standing right here
Jump.
But it sure seemed high to me.
And though only 5 years old,
I shimmied up that tree
Halfway up I looked down,
It seemed a mile away
I still recall the fear I felt,
Like it was yesterday
Daddy came running,
When he heard my cry,
And he told me he has his arms open wide
Jump!
Child I will catch you,
I will not let you
Slip through my arms,
Ohhhhhh
Jump!
Don't think about it,
Don't ever doubt it,
There's no need to fear
I'm standing right here
Jump.
Today, I'm still climbing,
Reaching for my dreams,
And though I'm older now,
There's still a child in me
And I have these moments,
Every now and then,
It seems I'm all by myself
Stuck out on a limb
But there's a father up in heaven
That hears my cry
And he tells me he has his arms open wide
Jump!
Child I will catch you,
I will not let you
Slip through my arms,
Ohhhhhh
Jump!
Don't think about it,
Don't ever doubt it,
There's no need to fear
I'm standing right here
Jump.
Jump!
Child I will catch you,
I will not let you
Slip through my arms,
Ohhhhhh
Jump!
Don't think about it,
Don't ever doubt it,
There's no need to fear
I'm standing right here
Jump.
