Mary Mary's song "Still My Child" is a heartfelt gospel track about people who feel distant from God due to their struggles and mistakes. The lyrics tell of a man battling bad habits and a woman facing hard times, both asking a friend to pray for them and to ask God if they are still His children. The song reassures listeners that God's love is unconditional, and even when we fail, He still calls us His own. It emphasizes the importance of prayer, repentance, and remembering that God's love never fades, offering comfort and hope to those who feel unworthy.

He had many of bad habits
He was trying hard to break
And every time he thought it got better
He would make another mistake
Though he knows he's far from perfect
He is trying to live right
He asked me to ask You Father
Would You hear his prayer tonight?
[Chorus:]
He said tell him that I really need him
And I really want to change
The next time you talk to God
Would you please mention my name
Oh, tell Him that I really love Him
And although it's been a while
Ask Him for me am I still His child
I asked her how she was doing
She said not so good lately
Then I told her girl you know
You can always talk to me
She said these days haven't been so happy
Haven't had much peace of mind
Now I know that I should be praying
But I haven't had much time
[Chorus]
I know the answer to your question
Yes the Father still loves you
But sometimes when you have children
You don't always like what they do
So when go to your heavenly Father
Say Lord I love You
And when you ask Him for forgiveness
This is what He'll say to you
I sent a message in the wind
When the birds sang their song
And when you went to sleep last night
I told the moon shine all night long
Just wanted you to talked to me
And I know it's been a while
And to answer the question
You are still my child
