As a child
Don’t ever lose your sense of wonder
Look as a child with eyes open wide
You will see
Marvel at every leaf you come by
As you hold between your fingers
Laugh with tantalizing raindrops
As they touch your beautiful face
Fill your soul with glee… delightful
As you run to meet the rainbow
Don’t ever lose your sense of wonder
Listen as child with attentive heart
You will hear
Feel the awe as you’re filled with joy
While you sing your favourite tune
Swirl… twirls… jump… hop… and skip
As you chant with doves of love
Be amazed at the joyful breeze
Blowing through your dancing hair
Don’t ever lose your sense of wonder
Observe as child with a soul so tender
You will understand
Don’t ever lose your sense of wonder
