Child, You're Forgiven
I came to Jesus, I took my stand
But what I'd surrendered was back in my hands
Defeated by failures, haunted by fears
I cried out in anguish, "My God, are You here?"
He said, "Child, you're forgiven, forgiven and free"
He said it, I heard it, sweet victory
The future can never intimidate me
Since I've been forgiven, forgiven and free
I'm resting and growing in His strong embrace
I've traded performance for amazing grace
My soul is at rest, oh, but I still must rejoice
When I think of the day that I heard His voice
What a relief, 'cause I can't earn my way
When I come up empty, my father pays
I'm learning to live, oh, and I'm learning to die
And one of these days, I'll be learning to fly
He said, "Child, you're forgiven, forgiven and free"
He said it, I heard it, sweet victory
The future can never intimidate me
Since I've been forgiven, I've been forgiven
Oh, I've been forgiven, forgiven and free
But what I'd surrendered was back in my hands
Defeated by failures, haunted by fears
I cried out in anguish, "My God, are You here?"
He said, "Child, you're forgiven, forgiven and free"
He said it, I heard it, sweet victory
The future can never intimidate me
Since I've been forgiven, forgiven and free
I'm resting and growing in His strong embrace
I've traded performance for amazing grace
My soul is at rest, oh, but I still must rejoice
When I think of the day that I heard His voice
What a relief, 'cause I can't earn my way
When I come up empty, my father pays
I'm learning to live, oh, and I'm learning to die
And one of these days, I'll be learning to fly
He said, "Child, you're forgiven, forgiven and free"
He said it, I heard it, sweet victory
The future can never intimidate me
Since I've been forgiven, I've been forgiven
Oh, I've been forgiven, forgiven and free
