Abba, my Father

I know there is a Father

Who loves me tenderly;

The Refuge of the helpless ones

Is watching over me.

The Father goes before me,

And I am all His pride;

I need not fear the storms of life,

For He is at my side.

The Father of all children

Has set His heart on me,

Because when all was lost and gone

His Son befriended me.

He has bent down low to feed me

And bless His little one;

For the glory of His Fatherhood

Is the goodness of His Son.

To love Him is my destiny-

Let me turn from other charms,

And find my peace and safety

In the shelter of His Arms.
