Child Of God

I could feel hatred

I could pull all my hair out

I could be your enemy

But that wouldn't be any good for me

I gave you my heart

But you threw tomatoes

I gave you my all

But that just wasn't enough for you

You're a child of God

And that's why I still love you

You're a child of God

And that's why I'll forgive you

You're a child of God

And that's why I will sing for you

You're a child of God

And that's why I, that's why I must love you

I thought about startin' a fight

I wanted to punch you out

But I know that just wouldn't be right

Cause then I wouldn't be any better

You laugh at me and you spit me out

Your words could easily hurt cut me up

But the Lord is big and he's helped me out

To put this all in a prayer

You're a child of God

And that's why I still love you

You're a child of God

And that's why I'll forgive you

I try to give ten for one

But that ain't always easy

How about ten for none

Should I still be giving

You're a child of God

And that's why I still love you

You're a child of God

And that's why I'll forgive you (I'll forgive, I'll forgive)

You're a child of God

And that's why I will sing for you

You're a child of God

And that's why I, that's why I must love you

I could feel hatred

I could pull all my hair out

I could feel, I could feel so much

But I choose to feel love
