May the Father’s love surround you
May you feel His arms around you,
When the way is dark and lonely
May you know He’s there to hold you
Whispering tenderly that He loves you.
Human once, He knows our sorrow
Count on Him for each tomorrow
And all the way into Eternity.
Though the storm buffets and pounds us
Still He keeps His arms around us
And we rest secure through our adversity.
When your strength has turned to water
When your steps begin to falter
Lean on the shoulders of the Master
He will shield from all disaster.
Through the valleys He will guide you
Comfort, peace and love provide you.
