I'm Here Child


When I wake up in the morning
To a new day just begun
I remember words of Jesus
My Redeemer, God's own son
He said I'm always with you
Through each moment of the day
All you have to do child
Is lift your eyes and pray

When you whisper my name,"Jesus"
I'll hear you when you call
I'll walk beside you every day
Pick you up each time you fall
I never promised rosy paths
But you'll never walk alone
As long as you depend on me
And my blood that does atone

You know I died on Calvary
So you child might be free
You will make it all the way
As you depend on me
I'll lead and guide your life child
As on me you do rely
And I will take you with me
When I come by and by

So keep your heart in tune child
Keep looking toward me
Don't ever be distracted
By what you feel or see
For my eyes are on the sparrow
I see each one that falls
So are my eyes on you child
Look to me, your all in all.
