[Verse 1]
B E
Just like a child, who trust his father dear
B G#m C#m F#
And who delight , to fell his presence near
B E
Just like a child, whose mind has not a doubt
F# B
And whose heart is never proud.
[Chorus]
E B
Hear I come, o lord
C#m F# B
Hear I come just like a child
E B
Hear I come, o lord
C#m F# B
Hear I come just like a child
[Verse 2]
B E
Just like a child, so weak he cannot stand
B G#m C#m F#
But who holds firm and tight his mother's hand
B E
Just like a child, who sings in bright daylight
F# B
Fearing not the long dark night.
[Chorus]
E B
Hear I come, o lord
C#m F# B
Hear I come just like a child
E B
Hear I come, o lord
C#m F# B
Hear I come just like a child
[Verse 3]
B E
Just like a child that guilty deeds oppress
B G#m C#m F#
With mind and heart in trouble and distress
B E
who throws himself into his mother's arms
F# B
Sure she'll free him from his qualms.
[Chorus]
E B
Hear I come, o lord
C#m F# B
Hear I come just like a child
E B
Hear I come, o lord
C#m F# B
Hear I come just like a child
