O child of God, so innocent
Every moment is a new experience.
Do not give in to this poison world;
Hold on tight to your innocence.
Stay cradled in the arms of the Lord
When I see your smile, my faith is restored.

Stay as you are
Don’t fall into this world and its sorrow
Stay as you are
Hold on to this peace for tomorrow
If you ever hear anything I say
The way you are today, is the way you should stay
As you are…

O child of woman, child of man
You’re not to blame, but still you’re bound to sin
We all will love you, come what may
Should fate decree you lose or you win
O child of love, your heart is so pure
Oh child of hope, your fate is so unsure

Stay as you are
Don’t fall into this world and its falsehood
Stay as you are
Fly with the angels for your own good
If you ever hear anything I say
The way you are today, is the way you should stay
As you are…

Hold on to this state of grace
Close to God, an awesome place
And in your eyes we see a trace
Of God-light shining on your face

Stay as you are
Don’t fall into this world and its madness
Stay as you are
Keep that sense of joy, that simple gladness
If you ever hear anything I say
The way you are today, is the way you should stay
As you are…
