The Warrior Is A Child
by Twila Paris

Album: God Shed His Grace


Lately I've been winning battles left and right
But even winners can get wounded in the fight
People say that I'm amazing
Strong beyond my years
But they don't see inside of me
I'm hiding all the tears

Chorus:
They don't know that I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and cry for just a while
'Cause deep inside this armor
The warrior is a child

Unafraid because His armor is the best
But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest
People say that I'm amazing
Never face retreat
But they don't see the enemies
That lay me at His feet

Chorus:
They don't know that I go running home when I fall down
They don't know who picks me up when no one is around
I drop my sword and look up for a smile
Because deep inside this armor
Deep inside this armor
Deep inside this armor
The Warrior is a Child

I still appreciate this reminder that running home is the best option in times of struggle. I think of these lines. 38 years later I look back and am so grateful for the times my God has picked me up. - May 2022
