~ Father's Love ~

Oh, what blessed joy in knowing
Unconditional love so sweet;
When in sorrow, I go longing
Just to sit at Father's feet.

As I seek, I find compassion,
For He knows my every care.
Pouring out His wondrous mercy,
I can always find Him there.

In His presence, peace surrounds me.
Abundant grace He freely gives.
Working out His glorious life-plans,
In His child, each day, He lives.

Father's love is like no other;
No one else could take His place.
He has taught just how to live life.
Thank you, Father, for this day.
