Jaci Velasquez - Child of Mine lyrics

Chris Eaton & Ralph Van Mannen

You decided long ago

To let me into your deepest soul

You have given me

A private place

Then somehow you let it fade away

I know you so well

And I can tell

When you've been hiding something from me

Just let it go

Let my love flow

Let it bring you release

CHORUS 1

I have come

To breathe new life

Into the heart of a child of mine

I have come

To give you peace

So lift your head and believe

You were made

In a beautiful way

Born to be holy

And sure of your faith

Something inside you

Has led you astray

Now you're locked in a struggle

And it won't go away

I know you have been

Down on your knees

I saw you cryin' for mercy

Well how can I help

When you're still holdin' on

To somethin' more precious than Me

CHORUS 2

I have come to breathe new life

Into the heart of a child of mine

I have come

To lift you up

To set you free so believe

It's all about

Total surrender

It's all about

Total surrender

It's all about

Total surrender

Givin' it up when the goin' gets tough

Givin' it up when the goin' gets rough
