When I was a young girl you showed me the truth.
And now that I'm a grown girl the truth is still truth.

When I was a young girl you showed me the light.
And now that I'm a grown girl its still shining so bright.

When I was a young girl and standing so tall
you told me not to pride myself, to humble myself, and fall.

And now that I'm a grown girl I kneel before you everyday
I tell you all my sorrows and the pain just melts away.

When I was a young girl and swallowed up in sin
I turned away from you but you just took my hand.

You loved me always and helped me endure to the end.
And now that I'm a grown girl you still my Father, still my Friend.
