The song questions personal doubts and pride that have created distance, while acknowledging God's unfailing love and undeserved grace.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Why do I question what's taking place
Whatever happened to innocent days
Days when I gladly walked by Your side
After the guilt but way before my pride
Why do I hide in places so small
Crowded with questions, no room at all
For all the big things You once had planned
My faith disappeared when I let go Your hand
Innocent faith
Innocent way
An innocent heart
Filled with innocent praise
Unfailing love
Undeserved grace
Please take me back to innocent days
Is Your forgiveness so deep and wide
That it would place me back at Your side
Why should You want me, why should You care
I don't understand this love that You share
Lord, free my heart to feel, to touch, to see, to taste
Cover me with the robe, the garment of innocent praise
