Look at the last verse.  If you are a parent you'll find yourself choking up at the very reflective truth of that message.

Lyrics                                  
Teach me when to hold on, and when to let go
How to build something new, and still honor the old
Teach me to be careful, yet teach me to be bold
Give me room to grow.
Give me space to breathe, space to play
Faith to believe in all that you say
Give me the courage to make my own way

Give me room to grow
Room to grow, room to grow
Time to show how far I can go
We all play a part, so from the heart
I thank you for room to grow.

So give me love and protection in all that you do.
But don't try to make me just like you.
'Cause I've got my own special
Dreams to make true.
Give me room to grow.
Repeat Chorus (2x)

There are so many profound messages in these lyrics.   In a world that often seems unsafe, young parents at times want to bundle their children in bubble wrap and keep them close beside them.  As parents we are all protective of our children.  Room To Grow celebrates finding the right balance between belonging and becoming, between holding on and letting go.
