- THE WARRIOR IS A CHILD
- Words and music by
Twila Paris
Lately I've been winning battles left and right
- But even winners can get wounded in the
fight
- People say that I'm amazing
- Strong beyond my years
- But they don't see inside of me
- I'm hiding all the tears
- They don't know
- That I go running home when I fall down
- They don't know
- Who picks me up when no one is around
- I drop my sword and cry for just a while
- 'Cause deep inside this armour
- The warrior is a child
- Unafraid because His armour is the best
- But even soldiers need a quiet place to
rest
- People say that I'm amazing
- Never face retreat
- But they don't see the enemies
- That lay me at His feet
- They don't know
- That I go running home when I fall down
- They don't know
- Who picks me up when no one is around
- I drop my sword and look up for a smile
- 'Cause deep inside this armour
- The warrior is a child
