Lyrics

Go back!
I wanna go back
When I was a kid
I was sure
I could run across the ocean
And I was gonna be an astronaut
It was You and it was me
I had everything I needed
Faith could even move a mountain top
And then I grew up
And then I got older
Then my life got tough
And we grew apart
Oh, I wanna go back
To Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me
For the Bible tells me so
I wanna go back
To this little light
Gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine
I wanna go back
When I was a kid
I didn’t care to keep up with the Jones’s
I was just happy that they lived next door
It was You and it was me
I had everything I needed
Your hands were big enough to hold the world
And then I grew up
And then I got older
Then my life got tough
And we grew apart
I wanna go back
To Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me
For the Bible tells me so
I wanna go back
To this little light
Gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine
I wanna go back
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go back
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go back
(I wanna go back)
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go back
(Ooh)
Back to yes
Jesus loves me, oh yes
Jesus loves me, yes
Jesus loves me
I wanna go back
I wanna go back
To Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me
For the Bible tells me so
I wanna go back
To this little light
Gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine
I wanna go back
I wanna go back
To Jesus loves me this I know
(Jesus loves me, this I know)
For the Bible tells me
For the Bible tells me so
Hey, hey I wanna go back
To this little light
Gonna let it shine
(Let it shine)
Gonna let it shine
(Let it shine)
I wanna go back
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go back
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go back
(I wanna go back)
Wanna go, wanna go, wanna go back
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go back
