You've held me all my life in Your strong and protecting arms.
I learned to walk holding on to Your hands
And even now You walk beside me.
Through all my problems and trials
You were my shoulder to cry on and my source of strength.
And when the fleshy shell of my father abandoned the name,
You were still there to hold on to me.
When his visible footsteps were turned away from me, You still walked with me.
Your place is not far from me, but in my heart
My Father is not apart from me,
He lives with me and will never fail.
