Not as strong as you think

This is a song by Twila Paris that I just discovered. I thought it was really beautiful and just wanted to share it with you all and I highly recommend that you seek it out on youtube and have a listen. =)

The Warrior Is A Child

-

Lately I've been winning battles left and right

But even winners can get wounded in the fight

People say that I'm amazing, strong beyond my years

But they don't see inside of me, I'm hiding all the tears

-

They don't know that I go running home when I fall down

They don't know who picks me up when no one is around

I drop my sword and cry for just a while

Deep inside this armour - the warrior is a child.

-

Unafraid because His armour is the best

But even soldiers need a quiet place to rest.

People say that I'm amazing - never face retreat

But they don't see the enemies that lay me at His feet.

-

They don't know that I go running home when I fall down

They don't know who picks me up when no one is around

I drop my sword and look up for a smile

'Cause deep inside this armour...

-

Deep inside this armour...

Deep inside this armour...

The warrior is a child.
