You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
Nothing high, nothing low, could separate you from me
You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
You've got nothing to prove in you I am well pleased

And when you walk through the dark
I'll be a light unto your feet
And when you cry in the night
I'll be the comfort that you seek

Long before you spoke a word
Or your face was ever seen
Your every breath, your every move
Was ever visible, ever visible to me

'Cause you are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
Nothing high, nothing low, could separate you from me
You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
You've got nothing to prove in you I am well pleased

When you need me I'm already there
I hear your every prayer
And every step you take, I take with you
And every move you make, I make it to, oh

And I want you to know, I love you
And I want you to know

That when you walk through the dark
I'll be a light unto your feet
And when you cry in the night
I'll be the comfort that you seek

Long before you spoke a word
Or your face was ever seen
Your every breath, your every move
Was ever visible, it was visible to me

You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
Nothing high, nothing low, could separate you from me
You are the child that I love, in you I am well pleased
You've got nothing to prove in you I am
You've got nothing to prove, in you I am, I am well pleased

I am well pleased
You are the child that I love
You are the child that I love
You are the child that I love
