My Father

As each tear falls gently upon my face,

and such sadness seems to overwhelm me

I try to live each day at my own pace

Searching for a sense of tranquility.

You see the distress and pain my heart feels

and a light of promise comes from above

The sweet beauty of Heaven is revealed

I begin to feel your awesome, great love.

You replace my sadness with happiness

and tell me not to ever cry again

For in you, I will find the very best

You are my faithful Father and best friend.

I can come with a humbled heart to you

and bring every concern and all my cares

You will be there each day my whole life through

Taking charge of it with a love so rare.

Amen
