Full Circle

As a child I used to play.

As a child I dreamed away.

As a child I had no fear.

As a child year by year.

But as a child we all grow up.

No longer a child I forgot

just what it was that made me wish away the hours.

No longer a child I become

what I said I never would.

No longer a child I knew fear

that haunted me year by year.

No longer a child so alone.

I was lost in a world begging to go home.

And yet when all was lost,

I found I was not alone.

I found my soul, my heart, my home!

In his arms there is no fear.

In his arms dreams appear.

In his arms I am safe and warm.

In his arms I am loved!

Now as I grow

I go not alone.

Now as I grow

I still play,

I still dream the day away.

I still know no fear

Because I have him here

Year by year.
