Hey Child [Lyrics]

Hey Child [Lyrics]

A Poem by Rebecca L. Smith
"

A victory song.

"

Hey, Hey 

I’ve been up all night

Seeking refuge in my mind

So I can be free 

Praise God and be me 

And I survive 

Based on a promise He has made

And I’m alive 

Thanks to the power of little bit a grace 


I’ve been holding down a victory 

Somebody always tries to take away from me

I’ve been holding down a victory 

Ain’t gonna let nobody take away from me

I said, hey child

How long has it been since you’ve gone wild? 

Hey child, taking off running like you’ve been exiled

Blowing through the valleys like a summer breeze

Or reaching up to Heaven like the Georgia pine trees

I said, hey child

I’ve been holding down a victory 


Oh yeah

And I won’t place my hope in danger 

Just to cave in to all your anger 

And I won’t second guess my choice

Just so you can have a louder voice  

I said hey child, I said hey child

Never let a life simply go to waste 

When you can stand behind bulletproof faith 


I been standing ten feet tall 

High off the ground but not afraid to fall 

I been holding down a victory 

Ain’t gonna let nobody take away from me

I been standing ten feet tall 

High off the ground but not afraid to fall 

I been holding down a victory 

Ain’t gonna let nobody take away from me


Ohhh, Yeah, I’m holding down my victory 


[Fade Out] 


Hey child, how long has it been since you've gone wild 

Taking off running like you've been exiled 

I said, hey child 

I said, hey child

I love its flow and message... the good thing is you wont be the only one holding down this victory... you have God to be your strength and Victory is what He is all about.
