Father

by - 4:55 PM


Father
“Father,” I cry when I cannot pray,
When all my words have melted away,
When I have nothing left to say,
My Father understands.

“Father,” I cry when I feel alone
When all my friends and kin are gone,
When I am nothing before the throne,
My Father understands.

“Father,” I cry when my sin is great,
When my soul is black and filled with hate,
When nothing can I do but wait,
My Father understands.

“Father,” I cry when He frees my soul,
When He makes this empty vessel full,
When nothing of me could make me whole,
My Father understands.

“Father,” I cry when I want to sing,
When I want to praise for everything,
When nothing in my hand I bring.
My Father understands.

“Father,” I’ll cry when before the throne,
When I praise Him for the battle won,
When He’s my Lord and Lord alone.
My Father will understand.
