Faith Of A Child Lyrics

Faith Of A Child lyrics

A child will walk, a child will run
A child with faith, faith will fly
Anita hasn't walked right since she was small
Her legs are short and
twisted not straight and tall
She learned when she was young how to deal
with the rejection
Cast into a world with all it standards of
perfection
Most people looked away with a downward glance
And as a
beautiful young woman, she was never asked to dance
Her dreams were just
as lofty as the girl next door
And she remember what her father said when
she couldn't take no more
He said
Someday your going to soar like a
eagle,
You will run and never grow tired
You'll become a new
creation
If you just keep the faith of a child,
Keep the faith of a
child
Now Anita lives alone in a paper mill town
In a one room
apartment at sixth and brown
She's got a steady job well its all right for
now
She has plans for moving on if she can make it some how
Her brown
hands are folded as she bows her head to pray
Over doughnuts and some
coffee she made up yesterday
Her mind begins to travel, she gives thanks
to the lord
And a angel stands beside her, points out to the door
And
said
Today you going to soar like a eagle
You will run and never grow
tired
You've become a new creation
For you have kept the faith of a
child
Kept the faith of a child, kept the faith of a child
