Story Behind The Song
Someone I know struck me as a child of God's light who, despite struggles, "cleaned up pretty good". The song was an optimistic attempt to tell them that they should keep going in the right direction.

a song that says "Any child of God cleans up pretty good"

Lyrics
So I'm imperfect, you don't have to tell me
I seem to stumble, just where I fall
Just a little wind, all it takes to fell me
Am I ever gonna, answer your call?
Covered with dirt, down in the trenches
Why should you, ever love me?
Child of God, is hardly my title
Then I catch a glimpse, of what you see
CHORUS
Cause any child of God cleans up pretty good
Once His reflection starts shining on through
And all of God's children will be heading on home
For an eternal rendezvous
When we finally reach, that great glory shore
A child of God, a child of light
Inner beauty glows, in purest garments
Reflections of, God's delight
