God's Children

Words and Music by Eric Gwin.

The Story Behind the Song

This song was written as a musical expression of frustration. It is amazing how God sees so much more in each of us than we see in each other. He has made us his children because he loves us and wants us to draw near to him, NOT because of our race, creed, background, etc. We are ALL important to him.

The Lyrics

Everyone who lives is a child of God.
It doesn't matter who you are.
He is our Lord. He is our maker.
Yet he is the one who wants us nearer to him.
He takes pride in all we do for him
Though we don't deserve his love.
He will carry you when you can't stand on your own.

Chorus: We are all God's children
All Gods pride
We are all God's children
All Gods pride
We belong to him. He is our Father
And we are his children.

He loves no one over another
He loves us all just the same
He is our Father. He is our God.
Yet he is the one who will love us no matter what we've done.
He takes pride in all we do for him
Though we don't deserve his love
He will carry you when you can't stand on your own

Chorus

Bridge: He'll never turn his back on his children
He'll always be right by your side
When you need him, he will come running
You have nothing to fear, he hears your cries

He takes pride in all we do for him
Though we don't deserve his love
He will carry you when you can't stand on your own

Chorus
