The children of the world are waiting
To hear the song
Of the love that is never ending
Pure and strong
All of us are children at heart, we long to be loved as we are
Every language, every heartbeat singing out
I am a child of forgiveness
Of joy and of riches
Of all His mercy I sing
Children of the world are dancing
Singing songs of joy
For the Father loves to pour his mercy
On every girl and boy
All of us are children at heart, we long to be loved as we are
Every language, every heartbeat singing out
I am a child of forgiveness
Of joy and of riches
Of all His mercy I sing
I am a child of forgiveness
This song is my witness
Over and over I sing
Children of the world are waiting...
Children of the world are waiting...
I am a child of forgiveness
Of joy and of riches
Of all His mercy I sing
I am a child of forgiveness
This song is my witness
Over and over I sing
I am a child of forgiveness
Of joy and of riches
Of all His mercy I sing
I am a child of forgiveness
This song is my witness
Over and over I sing
