My Father Cares


Whether in the air, on land or sea
I know my Father cares for me
It doesn't matter where I go
He's there for me, He loves me so
Within His fold how safe I feel
Because I know His love is real
He's my protection from all harm
I feel so safe within His arms

I do not have to dread or fear
Because I always feel Him near
It brings such comfort to my soul
When I give Jesus full control
He'll lead me all along life's way
If I will trust Him everyday
He'll never leave me all alone
One day He'll come and take me home

If you want this peace I feel
Then prove with me that God is real
He'll come into your heart today
And in your life He'll always stay
He'll guide you everywhere you go
Along with me you'll finally know
That God loves you as He does me
With Him you'll spend eternity

Imagine how we then will be
When with the one who set us free
The one who loved us all our days
Who taught us to walk in His ways
We'll meet our loved ones gone before
Live with the one that we adore
How safe and happy we will be
Home with the one who set us free.
