Analysis of A Child of Light
If you could be a child
a child of light
you would encounter the sky
each day and each night
You could be the sun and the moon
with God as your guardian
as his love shines thru
He'd watch over you each day and night
guiding you with his very light
Watching his every light shine thru
for a child he loves
with dreams that come true
You are a child
a child of light
with Gods love by your side
each day and each night
