Father and Friend
My God, my Lord, my Saviour, King,
my living bread, abundant spring.
On you alone I shall depend,
gracious Father and loving friend.
I strive for love amongst burnt soil,
retrieve me now from lost one's spoil.
May your love and mercy transcend,
gracious Father and loving friend.
When I am in my darkest night,
may my soul never loose your sight.
Hold me close Lord, my God defend,
gracious Father and loving friend.
And when its time to leave your herd,
may I have lived unto your word.
With faith, through grace, I shall ascend,
gracious Father and loving friend.
