A Father’s Love:  From the album, ‘From this moment on’

“God’s love is a Father’s love; ‘Abba’ – Daddy! This is how Jesus addressed God.’ This is how he pictured the father  in the story of the Prodigal son; 

there on the rooftop, longing for his son’s return, getting ready to run and hold him once more in his arms.

Intro: 2 F C G C   

  2C                                                      G

Come to me, lean on me, I’ll hold you tight,

                                                   C

Let my love shelter you in the night.

                                                                  F

Close your eyes rest a while, I won’t let go.

                                                 C                                     G         C        F  C   G  C

Here in my arms, you will be safe from all harm, just come to me.

Come to me, trust in me, know that I care,

When the storm rages hard, I’ll be there.

Pure as the snow that falls, warm as the rose,

Faithful and true, I’m just waiting for you, to come to me.  F  C   G  C

Come to me reach for me, hold out your hand,

Rest on the solid rock, not shifting sand

Through the dark days and nights, I’ll be with you.

I want you to know that I’ll never let go, just come to me  ( repeat last line)

F       C          G  C
