Gotta Grow Up · letra

When I was a child I spoke as a child But I put away childish things Now I'll never forget and you'll prob'ly suspect That we are the children of the King (yeah) Now that I'm a man I do what I can To find what my Father wants for me I got to be humble and kind as He changes my mind As we're growing in His family I can't keep from movin' when I'm seein' His glory I can't quench this fire that's in my soul I can't quench this fire that he's put in my soul
Chorus: You gotta grow up (grow up) get ready (get ready) Feast upon the things that you know Just because you're older Doesn't mean you're growin' colder Why not be bolder as you're followin' Him You gotta grow up (grow up) be steady (be steady) Don't be lost or tossed to and fro And don't you lose that child-like trust in Him
When I'm on my own I feel so alone Cause I'm leavin' Him far behind If I push Him away, though He wants me to stay He will not be forcing me in line (yeah) But when I understand He has the best plan And He's got it all planned for me I will never regret if I only submit To His providential sovereignty I can't keep from movin' when I'm seein' His glory I can't quench this fire... I can't quench this fire that He's put in my soul
Repeat Chorus
Bridge: No one can explain the trials and struggles I've been going through Growing pains and heartaches flood my way I always fail when I take charge of all the things I'm going through Instead of hearing what He has to say
Repeat Chorus
