I Want To Be A Child Again Lyrics & Chords By Matt Papa

I always heard you grow up fast
Never thought i would, but here i am
Somewhere I lost my innocence
Said I cant go back, so here's my front
So I set out on a course to win
I pulled myself up with my two hands
Now as I look at all the things I've gained
I proved that I'm good at hiding shame, now
I wanna be a child again
I wanna trust with all I am
Jump into the arms of Jesus
And grow up to be like Him
I wanna let ambitions go
I just wanna live my Father's love to know
I'm tired from trying to be the stronger man
I wanna be a child again
I've seen this world from west to east
Mostly from a window seat
I've seen my name shine in lights
But that glory fades like fireflies
I'm cynical and scared
(I wanna be a child again)
Took too many of the devil's dares
(I wanna be a child again)
Jesus help me find my feet
And choose the steps where yours have been
Back to how it used to be back then
My Seeker finds me where I hide
In the corners of guilt and under my pride
And His grace is chasing down this heart
I run away but i never get far
I'm gonna be a child again
I'm gonna trust with all I am
jump into the arms of Jesus
And grow up to be like Him
I'm gonna let ambitions go
I just wanna live my Father's love to know
I'm tired from trying to be the stronger man
I wanna be a child again
I'm leaving the life of pretense and pretend
I want to be a child again
there's a kingdom that only the young will enter in
I want to be a child again
