Child, get up...

I heard You call,

Child, get up

and follow Me

And so I came...

But, truth be known,

I fell...

Child, get up

I heard You speak my name

I grew and thought I knew

better, brighter... bitter

Sin swallowed me

And staked its claim

I turned my back,

pretended not to hear

or see or care-

I tried to hide my shame...

And still You called,

Child, get up and follow Me

And so I came, again

And again...
