FATHER O MY FATHER
From the shadows You have lifted me
Placed me on Your shoulders
Took my burdens You have carried me
Knowing You has become my life
Only You are my heart’s desire
I’m longing to know You
More than anything more than anything
I want just to love You
More than anything more than anything
Father Abba Father
You are with me when I feel alone
Lead me in green pasture
By still water You restore my soul
Knowing You has become my life
Only You are my heart’s desire
I come to You with everything
There’s nothing more that I can bring
This simple song my offering
I love You more than anything
