Your Child
Amanda Cook's song "Kind" is a heartfelt worship ballad that explores themes of weariness, brokenness, and the search for belonging. The lyrics describe a person who has lost their sense of home and trust, acknowledging their own failures and sin. Despite feeling fallen and broken, the song expresses a deep longing to remain God's child, finding hope in His redemption. It reflects a journey of surrender and faith, as the soul knocks at the door of redemption, waiting to hear God's affirming words. The song emphasizes God's enduring love and the assurance that even when everything crashes down, believers can remain His children.
I am worn and weary, what I've known as home is gone
Everything I trusted can't be found
And I'm left here singing a simple song
My heart is heavy
Thought I knew everything, I was wrong
And I put my own way above Your love
All I wanted was a place to belong
But the place I found was wrong
How can I remain Your child
When my sin left me broken and I fell to the ground?
Everything I've known came crashing down
How can I remain Your child?
This is a road well traveled by many before
That has brought me beaten to the redemption door
Now my soul is knocking, I will sit and wait
To hear You say, to hear You say
That I will remain Your child
Though the world will take its toll on me and I fall to the ground
And everything I've known comes crashing down
I will remain Your child
I will remain Your child
Though the world may take my breath away and I fall to the ground
And everything I've known can come crashing down
I will remain Your child
Oh, I will remain Your child
