Lyrics
When I was young, I feared God on high.
There were strict rules I had to abide.
But as I grew up, I saw in His plan
The beautiful future He prepared for man.
He sent from Heaven Jesus Christ
Who made the ultimate sacrifice.
The Redeemer came down to earth
And showed mankind their essential worth.
All of our faith is wrapped up in Him.
He who provides a way out of sin.
We should please God in all of our tasks
And allow righteousness to guide our path.
And allow righteousness to guide our path.
