Lyrics Barry McGuire

Barry McGuire

Crosses In The Sand

Wish I was a kid again

Had faith of a little child

Truth and love and honesty

Were part of my lifestyle

Trees are green and skies are blue

And as long of everything

And all day long I think about

The songs I used to sing

Those were the days

When I loved my Savior so

My faith was plain and simple

And it was fun to watch it grow

And I'd walk out along the seashore

Drawing crosses in the sand

And dream the love of Jesus

To hold in His hand

If I was a kid again

You know, I'd do things differently

As far as holding on, the love grows

Grown up peacefully

Oh, somehow down along the years

Everything got turned around

Ans something stole away my first love

And left me upside down

I remember those were the days

When I loved my Savior so

My faith was plain and simple

And it was fun to watch it grow

Well, I'd walk out along the seashore

Drawing crosses in the sand

And dream the love of Jesus

To hold in His hand

Well, I'll never go be a kid again

But the faith of a little child

It welled up deep inside of me

And taken over my lifestyle

It gets my back into my first love

A love the One who loved me first

And let Him satisfy my hunger

And quench my thirst

I tell you, those were the days

When I loved my Savior so

My faith was plain and simple

And it was fun to watch it grow

Why, I'd walk out along the seashore

Drawing crosses in the sand

And dream the love of Jesus

To hold in His hand

I'd walk out along the seashore

Drawing fishes in the sand

And dream the love of Jesus

To hold in His hand

Dream the love of Jesus

To hold in His hand
