Child of Mine

What glorious peace,
What blessed hope!
I am my Lord's and He is mine.
Wondrous love, O joy divine!



Kneeling in prayer,
His sweet face I see,
And I hear Him whisper,
"My child, come unto me."



He calls me by name
As I bow at His feet;
And I linger in His presence,
Rapt in ecstasy sweet.



His tender voice I hear,
Speaking softly in my ear,
"Child of mine have no fear;
Through every storm I'll be near.



I'll guide you, and I'll lead you,
I'll walk by your side.
I'll never, never leave you,
And in me you can hide.



Give me your burdens
Too heavy to bear.
Give me every heartache,
Every pain and every care.



I'll heal your broken heart;
I'll wipe all your tears away.
I'll bear you up on eagle's wings,
And I'll give you strength for today."



"My child, hear My voice,"
He calls from above.
I feel His power all around me,
And nothing can separate me
from His LOVE.
