CHILDREN SONGS by Augusto Flameño Monsayac

*I BELIEVE*

I believe there's a reason why
You let me live and enjoy my life;
There's a role that I should play,
A mission that I should accomplish;
There's a purpose why I am here in this world.

Chorus:
O, Lord,
Show me the path I must go through;
Give me strength to do the things I must do;
My Creator I need you;
Guide me, help me
To be
The one that I should be.

I believe You have given me
Gifts that I should use for Thy glory;
You blessed me with skills and talents
That I should discover and develop
And share this blessings
For the betterment of the world.

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
I am nothing without you;
I can't make this on my own;
I believe in you,
O, Lord...

(Repeat Chorus)


*A CHILD*

I know
I'm but a child
Who doesn't know much
About life;
But I know I
I do have rights
Eventhough I'm just a child.

Chorus 1:
The right to live; to be love;
The right to grow; to have dreams;
The right to education; to showcase my talents;
The right to see, to enjoy
The beauty of the world;
The right to smile, to laugh
To celebrate my childhood.

I know
I'm but a child
Who may not have much say
In this land
But I know
I am loved by God
Even though I'm just a child.

Chorus 2:
So, I pray for peace, for unity,
For freedom and equality;
I pray for love to reign
Over all the earth;
I pray for hope and happiness
In every heart and soul;
I pray that each child will have
A wonderful childhood.

Bridge:
I know I am loved by God...
I know I do have rights
Eventhough I'm just a child.

(Repeat Chorus 1&2)
