Bind Him Up Forever
He spends his time in idleness, trying to find his place in this world, and looking
for his way, though unaware he fails each time and falls deeper in despair.
He doesn't know that he'll never find happiness while in such woe, or know what
it's like to be,... Really loved!
My father, I come to you, lowly bent,...
Draw him nigh to thee, make him thine very own, walk before him, beside and
after him; follow. Keep him so close, that your heart beats for him. Let Your love
flow through him and Your grace bind him up forever.
In You, he'll never fear tomorrow and all his sorrows will soon fade away.
Everyday will be sunshine, even though it's dark and dreary, Your light will
outshine every cloud. His days will never be so good that he is beyond the need
of Your grace,and his days so bad that he is beyond the reach of Your grace.!
My father, I come to You, lowly bent...
Lift him from the miry clay and wash him in Your purified blood, then shall he be
a part of your devine will. Make sure the path before him, lay out trials to teach
him to trust You, and mountains let him climb that he may know endurance and
faith.Through valleys of darkness let him wander that he will know you'll never
leave nor forsake him and Your hand leads the way.
Let Your love flow through him, and Your grace bind him up forever!
