LYRICS:

When you were a child I loved you
When you were a child I called you my son
But the more I called you
The further you went from me

It was I who taught you
Taught you to walk your first steps
It was I who taught you
Holding you by your hand
It was I who healed you
Healed all of your [bad word] wounds and pain

How can I give you up
How can I hand you over
How can I treat you like
Treat you like a sinner
How can I look at you
When you turn against me [bad word] is stirring
My love overflowing for you
How can I not love you

I saw you walking
In the desert land
Got me thinking
Got me wondering
Will he be okay
So I cared for you I led you
But you forgot me
You forgot me

When will you understand
When will you see that I am
Waiting right here for you [bad word] back again
When will you see that I am
Ready to forgive you
And to care for you
And love you once again
