The Bird And The Child

Marie Myriam

I am a child, a child of creation

Feeling just like a wandering star

And like a bird who's flying in motion

Trying to see so clear, so far



Far in the sky, I fill there with dancing

Far in the sky, I hear the birds sing

Out in the storm, I play with the Winter

Shout to the winds and wait for Spring



Spring that awakes with eyes full of loving

Giving the world a phase that is new

Sending us all the rains and the flowers

Showering us with love that's true



True as the dawn that wakes up the sunshine

True as the look I see in your eyes

You gave to me the day of my lifetime

Taught me to love, taught me to fly



Bird on the wing, sing for me, sing

Take me up high, show me your sky



I am a child, a child of creation

Wanting to meet the world face to face

Moving the clouds and letting the light through

Making the world a sunny place



Place for a song and place for a poem

Light up my life the way you can do

There's so much hope that's shining around us

Hope for the child, for me and you



I am a child, a child of creation

Feeling like I'm a wandering star

And like a bird who's flying in motion

Trying to see so clear, so far



Bird on the wing, sing for me, sing

Take me up high, show me your sky



Bird on the wing, sing for me, sing

Take me up high, lend me your sky
