Hey Child [Lyrics]A Poem by Rebecca L. SmithA 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 © 2014 Rebecca L.
