The Father's Arms
Words and Music by Althea M. Bakke-Lysaker

Father, will you hold me,
Take my hand in yours?
For I am broken,
And I need to know you care

Father, will you love me,
Hold my heart in your hands?
I need to feel your touch.
I need to know that you are there.

My love is flowing,
Flowing from the throne
and I will carry you.
I will love you,
For I am here.

Daughter, are you listening,
Rest your head in my arms.
I will kiss your face
I will pour out my grace.

Daughter, do you hear me,
Put your hand in mine.
I have heard your cries
I will mend your broken wings.

Your love is flowing,
flowing from the throne
and I will rest my head
I will trust you
with my all.
