Father


Father, you promised mankind,
You gave your word there'd be a Savior coming.
He came, the fullness of time
Revealed the long awaited favor of your love,
And there is no love quite like yours.

Jesus, You are the promise,
You are the bright and morning star in my life,
You came to live among us
While You were found there lying in a manger,
You were a stranger to this cold world.

Yet to those who receive You,
And to those who believe in You,
You gave the right to be the children of God
And the heirs of Eternity,

Oh Wonderful, Counselor,
Mighty God, Prince of Peace.

Father, the Holy Spirit conceived the child
Within the womb of Mary.
Your will, she didn't fear it but she delighted in
Your perfect Wisdom for there's
No wisdom quite like Yours.

Yet to those who receive You,
And to those who believe in You,
You gave the right to be the children of God
And the heirs of Eternity,

Oh Wonderful, Counselor,
Mighty God, Prince of Peace.
Father.
