Thou, Faithful Friend and Father





Faithful friend and Father
Lord Immortally
Thou who parts fear’s waters
Watches over me

Healer of all nations
Giver of all life
Thou who tends creation
Tends our care and strife

Shepherd of each sorrow
Keeper of each tear
Thou who sees tomorrow
Holds us ever near

Perfect, patient Presence
Thou art everywhere
Thou who hears the essence
Of each heart-rent prayer

Faithful Friend and Father
Lord eternally
Thou who knows us, teach us
How to trust in Thee

Do you ever struggle with this?
...simply taking God at His Word.
