‘Like a Child’ is a heartwarming ode to the simplicity and purity of childhood, reminding us of Yahuah’s call to view His kingdom through a child’s eyes. With its classic country melody, this song invites listeners to rediscover the world with the wonder and trust of a child. Each verse and chorus are filled with poetic imagery of children's carefree, loving nature, suggesting that these qualities are what open the gates to deeper understanding and connection with the divine.
From playful days under Yahuah’s watchful gaze to the profound lessons we can learn from children’s straightforward faith, 'Like a Child' is both a celebration and a reverent exploration of what it means to truly love and believe without reservation. The song draws inspiration from the lives of biblical figures like Moses, Samuel, Jeremiah, and John the Baptist, who each followed Yahuah with a childlike faith, even amidst great challenges.
Yahusha Himself emphasized the importance of this childlike openness when He said, 'Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven' (Matthew 18:3). This song echoes that divine instruction, urging us to embrace the humility and sincerity of a child’s perspective. Perfect for contemplative listening or inspiring a renewed approach to faith and life, 'Like a Child' touches the heart with its message of purity and joy, embodying the wisdom that 'to such belongs the kingdom of heaven' (Matthew 19:14)."

[Verse 1:]
Little feet, big adventures, every day,
Yahuah smiles as you play.
He tells the world, let them come to Me,
For the kingdom's theirs, so pure and free.
[Chorus:]
Be like the children, so fearless, so mild,
For to see His kingdom, we must be like a child.
Laughing and learning, forgiving and wild,
In their hearts so gentle, lies the wisdom of the mild.
[Verse 2:]
No one may hinder, so says Yahusha,
Each child a treasure, to love is our pleasure
Their faith so simple, their love so pure,
Teach us to see the world like them, sure.
[Bridge:]
Come and listen closer, let’s watch and learn,
How their trusting eyes believe without a single turn.
He counts every hair, He knows every twirl,
In His loving arms, every boy and girl.
[Outro:]
So let's step lightly, like the children do,
Find joy in moments, in the sky so blue.
With hearts wide open, like the gates above,
We'll understand what it means to love.
