Lyrics
Father, Father, day by day
You give me all I need:
Blessings, burdens, work and rest,
Disgrace and dignity,
Quiet, peaceful streams
And the mountains steep,
Pastures broad and green
And the shadows deep.
Shepherd, Shepherd, I am weak,
So gently lead Your lamb.
Joy or sorrow, loss or gain,
I kiss Your loving hand.
Father, kind and wise,
Good in all You do,
Take away the light
If You’ll walk me through.
Father God, You only give
What draws me close to You.
