Chorus:
I'm growin' up in the Lord.
Oh I'm gettin' stronger; turnin' back no longer:
I'm growin' up in the Lord.
I'm growin' up in the Lord.
I make mistakes but that's part of growin' up.
Part of growin' up in the Lord.
His understanding is what I need the most,
I am staying close to His word.
Sheltered from harm when I am safe in his arms
And I am learning to do His will.
Hearing his call although I stumble and fall.
I can get up and keep growing still.
Repeat Chorus
Now as I'm growin' I'm learning what to say,
Learning how to walk in the light.
I'm made aware of the devil every day
Learning how to handle the fight.
Tempted by wrong, He keeps me ready and strong
So I can handle the Tempter's snare.
Jesus is mine and since he's there all the time
I am protected within His care
Repeat Chorus (x2)
I'm growin' up in the, growin' up in the, I'm growin' up in the Lord.
