A Father To the Fatherless Premiere Contest Winner

My shelter from the storm
My Fountain in the wilderness
My Refuge and my Rock

High King of love, God of all grace
You have become my hiding place

My ever faithful God
A Lover to the loveless
Defender of the weak
The Healer of all brokenness
Restorer of my dreams

High King of love, God of all grace
My Comfort and my Peace
My Substitute, my Sacrifice

My perfect, spotless Lamb
You have become all in all 
My risen Lord, my Gift of life
My Saviour and my Friend

High King of love, God of all grace
Perfect in power, and strong to save
You're my God, my Glory 

You have become my righteousness
A humble Father to the motherless 
A kind Father to the fatherless 
You're my saviour, unchangeable Father.
