Child, You're Forgiven - Gaither Vocal Band

Child, you’re forgiven

Gaither Vocal Band/

God is Good

I came to Jesus

I took my Stand

But what I’d surrendered

Was back in my hands

Defeated by failures

Haunted by fears

I cried out in anguish

«My God, are you here?»

He said child you’re forgiven

Forgiven and free

He said it, I heard it

Sweet victory

The future can never

Intimidate me

Since I’ve been forgiven

Forgiven and free

I’m resting and growing

In His strong embrace

I’ve traded performance

For amazing grace

My soul is at rest

Oh, but I still must rejoice

When I think of the day

That I heard His voice

What a relief

Because I can’t earn my way

When I come up empty

My father pays

I’m learning to live

And I’m learning to die

And one of these days

I’ll be larning to fly
