Words and music: Greg Volz
If a child lives with criticism
He learns to condemn
If a child lives with shame
He learns to feel guilty
If a child lives with forgiveness
He learns to have patience
If a child lives with fairness
He learns justice
If a child lives with security
He learns to have faith
There's a love He will give you
You can't conceive it, just believe it
But you must become as a child
To receive it
Open up - He will come into your heart
Then you will see it
If a child lives with Jesus
He learns to give love to the world
