I’ll Turn to the Savior

When I was a girl, I sowed dreams and climbed rainbows.
The earth was my playground, the sky my balloon.
And Jesus was with me in all of creation.
The wonder of childhood is gone all too soon.
How will I remember to look for the rainbows,
to treasure each dream that has shown me the way?
I’ll turn to the Savior in each quiet moment
and come as a child unto Him every day.
