MY REAL FATHER
THE SOVEREIGN LORD WHO BREATHED LIFE INTO ME
HE MOLDED ME INTO BEING
GAVE ME THE WORLD TO TAKE CHARGE OF
CREATED ME IN HIS VERY IMAGE
EVEN THE POWER TO CHOOSE GOOD FROM EVIL
THE CONNECTION WE HAVE WITH OUR EARTHLY FATHERS
THE LOVE AND CARE THEY GRANT US
CANNOT AT ANY POINT BE COMPARED TO THAT
OF THE REAL FATHER, GOD IN HEAVEN
A REAL, GENUINE FATHER, A TRUE GOD
HIS LOVE IS MAGNIFIED A THOUSAND FOLD
HE ABANDONED HIS ENTIRE CREATION
TO DEAL WITH US PRODIGAL SONS
HIS WRATH CONTAINED IN PITY AND SORROW
FROM THE REGRETS OF CREATING US
TO AN URGENT NEED FOR SALVATION
THE EPITOME OF HIS GENUINE LOVE FOR MAN
THROUGH DISOBEDIENCE WE HURT OUR FATHER
GOD HURT BECAUSE WE WROTH IN SIN
HE WOULDN’T ALLOW US TO SUFFER IN SIN
THE FATHER OF ALL, CREATOR OF ALL, MOST HIGH GOD
AMAZING GRACE, ABOUNDING LOVE FOR ALL
GOD’S WILL SHOULD BE OUR CONCERN
DOING WHAT HE WANTS US TO DO
WORKING OUR CONFESSIONS IN TRUTH AND FAITH
GIVING MEANING TO CHRIST’S DEATH
DIVINE SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS OF CALVARY
THAT GRANTED US THE RIGHT TO ETERNITY
HEARKEN TO HIS VOICE THIS DAY
LIVE AS CHRIST LIVED TO DESERVE HIS NAME
THAT WE ARE CALLED CHRISTIANS SHOULD BE SEEN
NOT JUST HEARD ABANDON THE LIP SERVICE
LET YOUR LIVES REFLECT HIS DIVINE NATURE.
THIS IS THE COMMAND.
