    "Let my past mean nothing, make it powerless. I am free like a river. I am free like a river. You're my hope unbroken. You're my innocence. I'm free like a river. I'm a child again." This is honestly what if means / feels like to be born again. Jesus literally washing away your past, and freeing you from all condemnation and religion, so you can walk with Him in holiness and innocence. Try Jesus friends, I promise you He's better than anyone could ever preach, imagine or dream.

    This song just wrecks me emotionally. I deal with mental health issues and sometimes I get sidetracked by the world. It’s warming to know that God is always with us, wanting us to be his children.

    Psalms 131:2 " But I have calmed and quieted myself, I am like a weaned child with its mother; like a weaned child I am content."
    Surely make me child again oh Lord.

    Children allow their parents to take care of them. They are dependent on their parents. Are you allowing God to take care of you? Are you being a child? Are you giving Him total control of your life?

    “Hang on” is an ode to the lost joy of young love; this, however, isn’t a reminder of youthful passion, but of the expensive love of God that we become dull to, and in much the same way, often forget. God, make us children again! Keep it up guys!

I wanted to see him like how I did when I was young and innocent before the world completely destroyed me. Before I turned from him. Thank him for his mercy I will never leave him again. 🙏

    Every line in this song is EXACTLY what I feel. I, like many others unfortunately, experienced a very difficult childhood. So much so, that I was never able to be a child. I cared for my sister since the age of 8 and fought for my life against the one woman who was supposed to protect me from it all. I don't know if needtobreathe ever gets to read these comments, but I hope they know how much this album, and this song in particular, have helped me.

    NEEDTOBREATHE (2020) - CHILD AGAIN (Traducción)
    Yeah, I know too much
    Sí, sé demasiado
    I think I know my way around
    Creo que sé en lo que me ando
    Smart to feel a heartbreak now
    Ahora inteligente para sentir un desamor
    Too old let my safeguards down
    Demasiado viejo para permitirme bajar la guardia
    Where'd the wonder go?
    ¿A dónde fue el asombro?
    Trading magic for a measured hope
    Intercambiando la magia por una comedida esperanza
    Traded dreaming for a worn out home
    Intercambiado el soñar por un hogar maltrecho
    Tired of being in control
    Harto de llevar las riendas
    In the cosmic light
    Bajo la luz cósmica
    In the by and by
    En el futuro
    I wanna see your heart
    Quiero ver tu corazón
    Through my younger eyes
    A través de mis ojos más jóvenes
    I wanna hear your voice
    Quiero oír tu voz
    In the rain and wind
    En la lluvia y el viento
    I wanna know it's safe to be
    Quiero saber que es seguro ser
    A child again
    Un niño de nuevo
    I know that gettin' hurt
    Sé que saliendo herido
    Is really how redemption works
    Es realmente como funciona la redención
    My ego is a ball and chain
    Mi ego es una bola y una cadena
    My instincts only make it worse
    Mis instintos sólo hace que empeore
    In the mornin' light
    A la luz de la mañana
    I don't want to run from pain
    No quiero huir del dolor
    You know I can't afford to cheapen grace
    Sabes que no puedo permitirme degradar la gracia
    I know that pain means my soul's awake
    Sé que el dolor significa que mi alma está despierta
    In the cosmic light
    Bajo la luz cósmica
    In the by and by
    En el futuro
    I wanna see your heart
    Quiero ver tu corazón
    Through my younger eyes
    A través de mis ojos más jóvenes
    I wanna hear your voice
    Quiero oír tu voz
    In the rain and wind
    En la lluvia y el viento
    I wanna know it's safe to be
    Quiero saber que es seguro ser
    A child again
    Un niño de nuevo
    Let my past mean nothin'
    Deja que mi pasado no signifique nada
    Make it powerless
    Hazlo impotente
    I am free like a river
    Soy libre como un río
    I am free like a river
    Soy libre como un río
    You're my hope unbroken
    Eres mi esperanza intacta
    You're my innocence
    Eres mi inocencia
    I am free like a river
    Soy libre como un río
    I'm a child again
    Soy un niño de nuevo
    Let my past mean nothin'
    Deja que mi pasado no signifique nada
    Make it powerless
    Hazlo impotente

    Soy libre como un río
    You're my hope unbroken

    You're my innocence
    Eres mi inocencia
    I am free like a river
    Soy libre como un río

    Soy un niño de nuevo
    In the cosmic light

    “For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words. Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. You are all children of the light and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him.”

    Matthew 18
    New International Version
    The Greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven
    18 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
    2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.
    Causing to Stumble
    6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones-those who believe in me-to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. 7 Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come! 8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two feet and be thrown into eternal fire. 9 And if your eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell.
    The Parable of the Wandering Sheep
    10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven. [11] [a]
    12 “What do you think? If a man owns a hundred sheep, and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? 13 And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he is happier about that one sheep than about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. 14 In the same way your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
    Dealing With Sin in the Church
    15 “If your brother or sister[b] sins,[c] go and point out their fault, just between the two of you. If they listen to you, you have won them over. 16 But if they will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’[d] 17 If they still refuse to listen, tell it to the church; and if they refuse to listen even to the church, treat them as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
    18 “Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be[e] bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be[f] loosed in heaven.
    19 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
    The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant
    21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
    22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[g]
    23 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold[h] was brought to him. 25 Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt.
    26 “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ 27 The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.
    28 “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins.[i] He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded.
    29 “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’
    30 “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. 31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened.
    32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ 34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
    35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”
