I am sharing the lyrics to a song that has much meaning to me.  I hope someone might enjoy it. 

An Amy Grant song written by Ron Hembry.  I bought the CD because of this one beautiful song.

Innocence Lost

I can't relive my life, I can't retrace my tracks

I can't undo what's done, there is no going back

Did not survey the cost, Illusions disappeared

I found my innocence lost.

Some say it's lessons learned, some say it's living life

I say it's choices made, knowing wrong from right.

One night I fought to sleep, in my slumber I turned and tossed

I woke to a cloudy day, found my innocence lost.

An innocent child is a beautiful thing, secure in a Father's arms

Sleeps while Mother sings.

There's no way to know all the harm this world can bring

I miss my innocence, oh to be innocent.

My heavenly Father,  The well of eternal love

That overflows with grace, I can completely trust

My broken heart repaired, all my sins forgot.

I can be pure again in spite of my innocence lost.

In His eyes I'm a newborn child, cause I accept His love

I have a new found hope, though I found my innocence lost
