steve camp – shade for the children lyrics
you came into our home one spring
a helpless bundle of joy
oh, the innocence a young one brings
love employs
there’s a tenderness in your heart
your mother’s sweetness in your soul
and a fire from your father
to burn against the cold
ah, the first time you called me daddy
my heart leaped through the sky
then i was struck by the reality
of what lay before my eyes
oh, lord, i cried, i wanna be…
shade for the children
a shelter from the storm
to be a place where they can grow
in the ways of the lord
to train up my child
to live a pure and godly life
through the struggles and fears
dreams and tears of every day
to be shade for the children
unless the lord builds the house
oh, we’ll labor in vain
oh, it’s good to be under construction
under his name
like mighty warriors
a quiver is full of them
like an arrow they will go
where we have never been
as for me and my house
we’ll serve the lord each day
we’ll draw our strength from him
as we make our way
oh, lord, we pray, let us be…
shade for the children
a shelter from the storm
to be a place where they can grow
in the ways of the lord
to train up my child
to live a pure and godly life
through the struggles and fears
dreams and tears of every day
to be shade for the children
and if you ever stray
know that we have prayed
the lord would bring you home
and with every step you take
you’ll someday discover
you were never alone
and when you have grown
i pray you’ll be…
shade for the children
a shelter from the storm
to be a place where they can grow
in the ways of the lord
to train up my child
to live a pure and godly life
through the struggles and fears
dreams and tears of every day
to be shade for the children
pray you’ll be a shade
for the children, for the children
(lord, let us be shade for the children)
i wanna be
(lord, let us be shade for the children)
this is our prayer
(lord, let us be shade for the children)
every day, every day
(shade for the children)
(lord, let us be shade for the children)
i wanna be, need to be
(lord, let us be shade for the children)
help me to be
