When I was a child, I dreamed I could reach the sky, reach the sky
When I was a child, I dreamed I could be someone reaching the sky
Sit back and watch all my dreams come alive
Somehow I ended up passing the time
We never notice where we've come in life
I used to wish for the who I am now
Trying to get there but didn't know how
Finally just gave up, said guess time will tell
Look at my life, I'm thinking God knew me well
I want better, I have never settled for less
Even at my lowest and I know I'm a mess
Even when I'm rushing through this life in distress
I know by my side, I got Christ, do me best
When I was a child, I dreamed I could be someone reaching the sky
Sit back and watch all my dreams come alive
Somehow I ended up passing the time
We never noticed where we've come in life
I would never have grown if I didn't start down
I would still be the same if I didn't lose ground
I would still be the same if I didn't get drowned
I would never have gone if I never did stop
I would never have run if I never did walk
I would never have sung if I never could talk
Pain helped me grow how I made it this far
Wounds in my heart made me stronger with scars
Told me that words people say cannot harm
I think all the things that they said made me strong
When I was a child, I dreamed I could be someone reaching the sky
Sit back and watch all my dreams come alive
Somehow I ended up passing the time
We never noticed where we've come in life
