My Father My Friend

Father God, merciful King
You have lavished you grace on me
With open arms you welcome me in
You have called me your child, your friend
And you say its your pleasure to give me your kingdom
To pour out your Spirit on me
My Father, my friend
You have proven you love again and again
My Father, my friend
You have opened your arms, invited me in
I receive your love again
Gracious God, help me to see
You’re not angry, you’re patient with me
When I fail you always forgive, and you love me just as I am
And you say it’s your pleasure to give me your kingdom
To pour out your Spirit on me
I bow at your footstoll in reverence
For you are my God and my King
You call me to come to your table
To speak to you face to face
