“The Gaither Vocal Band is an American southern gospel vocal group, named after its founder and leader Bill Gaither. Founded in the early ’80s, Gaither Vocal Band is one of America’s leading faith-based vocal groups. While Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. On March 1, 2017, it was announced that the Gaither Vocal Band lineup consisted of Reggie Smith, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles, and Bill Gaither. Although the group started out recording contemporary Christian music in the 1980s, it became known for southern gospel after the popularity of the Gaither Homecoming videos.” (Source: Wikipedia)

Child, You’re Forgiven

Gaither Vocal Band

God is Good

I came to Jesus
I took my Stand
But what I’d surrendered
Was back in my hands
Defeated by failures
Haunted by fears
I cried out in anguish
My God, are you here?

He said child you’re forgiven
Forgiven and free
He said it, I heard it
Sweet victory
The future can never
Intimidate me
Since I’ve been forgiven
Forgiven and free

I’m resting and growing
In His strong embrace
I’ve traded performance
For amazing grace
My soul is at rest
Oh, but I still must rejoice
When I think of the day
That I heard His voice

What a relief
Because I can’t earn my way
When I come up empty
My father pays
I’m learning to live
And I’m learning to die
And one of these days
I’ll be learning to fly

He said child you’re forgiven
Forgiven and free
He said it, I heard it
Sweet victory
The future can never
Intimidate me
Since I’ve been forgiven
Forgiven and free
