I have a Father

 

I have a Father

I have a Father,

Who created my inmost being

He made me unique and different

And delights in what He's seeing.

I have a Father,

Who sees each silent tear.

A Father who is proud of me,

And always wants me near.

I have a Father,

So patient kind and strong

He never, ever, stops loving me,

Even when I'm wrong.

I have a Father,

Who lovingly sings over me.

He who created the heavens,

Also, longed for me to be.

 

I have a Father,

Too wonderful to be true,

He has counted the hairs on my head,

And loves me through and through.

I have a Father,

Whose goodness strengthens my heart,

He is in each breath I take,

And we will never be apart.

I have a Father

Who gave His all for me,

He bankrupted heaven,

For me to be free.

I have a Father

Who healed and lifted me,

He is absolutely everything

That I need my Father to be.

I have a Father,

With a voice like a rushing water

Who, in His loving kindness,

Chose me to be His daughter.

I have a Father 

I long to see His face,

And gaze at His beauty forever

When I stand in the Holy place.
