Child of Mine

Child of mine, you are the wildest wind
 And the dearest dream I will ever know
 Love's lasting light shines out from deep within
 This father's heart as I watch you grow
 Child of mine, you are the break of dawn
 And the brightest star I will ever know
 Love's lasting light comes shining on and on
 From this mother's heart as I watch you grow
 There is a road and that road is all your own
 But we are here, you need not walk alone
 To face, not fear each coming new unknown
 Is the way to lift your wings
 Child of mine, you are the sweetest song
 And the greatest gift I will ever know
 Child of mine, where spirits fly above
 There is but one that belongs to you
 So let it grow and it will thrive on love
 For it is love that sees us through
 You have the hands that will open up the doors
 You have the hopes this world is waiting for
 You are my own but you are so much more
 You are tomorrow on the wing, child of mine
