[Verse 1]
Six years old in my bunk bed
Green t-shirt, wooden sword in hand
I jumped off screaming, "Peter Pan"
Hit the ground so hard, to my surprise
Was my technique not exactly right?
So I climbed back up and tried it all again
[Pre-Chorus]
Sure, it may sound foolish now, but I promise you
I knew deep down if I believed, I could do anything
I'm not sure when it was
My childlike faith grew up
[Chorus]
Take me back
To eyes open wide
To that kid who once believed
He was always made to fly
I want to be amazed
I want to drink it all in
I want to see my grown-up faith
Feel like a child again
[Post-Chorus]
With wonder and awe (Oh)
With wonder and awe (Oh)
[Verse 2]
Imagination running wild
Coloring outside the lines
Listening to my heart and not my head (Oh)
And looking up and looking out
Naming stars and losing count
Oh, I pray I'm always blown away
[Pre-Chorus]
That God knows who I am
[Chorus]
Take me back
To eyes open wide
To that kid who once believed
He was always made to fly
I want to be amazed
I want to drink it all in
I want to see my grown-up faith
Feel like a child again
[Post-Chorus]
With wonder and awe (Oh)
With wonder and awe (Oh)
[Bridge]
When you see what it means to be free and remember your life
You will find what it's like to be speechless every single time
But the older I get, the harder it is to comprehend such love
So I'll run to Jesus like a champ
[Chorus]
Take me back
To eyes open wide
To that kid who once believed
That he was made to fly
I want to be amazed (Be amazed)
I want to drink it all in (Drink it all in)
I want to see my grown-up faith
Feel like a child again
[Post-Chorus]
With wonder and awe (Oh)
With wonder and awe (Oh)
With wonder and awe (Oh)
With wonder and awe (Oh)
[Outro]
With wonder and awe
