Child of God ~ Layton De Vries "O child, child of God, rest assured, the Lord is with you. When you wake up in the morning and the sun is shining down, the Lord watches over every step you take. When the world has knocked you down and you don't know which way to turn, rest assured, the Lord is with you. When your friends have turned against you and you feel all alone, the Lord watches over every move you make. He will always be right there to protect and love his child, rest assured, the Lord is with you. When darkness drifts around you, and your eyes close in sleep, the Lord watches over every breath you take. And when death comes near to bring you home, you have no need to fear. Rest assured, the Lord is with you. " Composer Layton De Vries died at the age of 24 as the result of injuries received in an automobile accident. Layton wrote this song during the last few years of his life.
