\u00a0<\/strong>I was lost in a world I did not know<\/h6>\n
Only a child filled with shame and woe<\/h6>\n
Left behind with no one to care;<\/h6>\n
Just a child, alone, who dared\u2026<\/h6>\n
To travel on Street Desire\u2026<\/h6>\n
A balancing act upon a wire<\/h6>\n
Hopeless, defeated, poor and weak<\/h6>\n
I had no voice, I could not speak<\/h6>\n
Faceless, nameless, no one discreet\u2026<\/h6>\n
Until one day this man appeared<\/h6>\n
A light in the darkness, he said, \u201cDo not fear\u2026<\/h6>\n
I\u2019ve come to take you home, with me, where life is good<\/h6>\n
There\u2019ll be no more tears\u2026\u201d<\/h6>\n
Standing in the sunlit room\u2026no more heartache no more gloom<\/h6>\n
In the presence of love I find<\/h6>\n
A Street called, Love Divine\u2026<\/h6>\n
I took his hand and as he held mine\u2026<\/h6>\n
Savior, Yeshua said, \u201cCome and dine.\u201d<\/h6>\n
Now golden streets are where I walk<\/h6>\n
Robes of white washed in the blood\u2026<\/h6>\n
Songs of praise and joy and love\u2026<\/h6>\n
I\u2019m a child, new-born, with God above.<\/h6>\n

Matthew 18:3-5 The Message (MSG)<\/em><\/strong><\/h6>\n
For an answer Jesus called over a child, whom he stood in the middle of the room, and said, \u201cI\u2019m telling you, once and for all, that unless you return to square one and start over like children, you\u2019re not even going to get a look at the kingdom, let alone get in. Whoever becomes simple and elemental again, like this child, will rank high in God\u2019s kingdom. What\u2019s more, when you receive the childlike on my account, it\u2019s the same as receiving me.<\/em><\/h6>\n
