Innocence Lost - Amy Grant

I can’t relive my life

I can’t retrace my tracks

I can’t undo what’s done

There is no going back

I chased a selfish dream

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 right from wrong

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

And 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
