Family, My Safe Place
I believe in a sovereign Father God,
His Son, Jesus' virgin birth
the Holy Spirit - these three I applaud.
I believe God has a family plan
safe place for a husband and wife
creating children as they form a clan.
I believe moms work hard to satisfy
what households need. Dads get jobs to supply
the basics: food, clothes and shelter thereby.
God works in my world to interweave
blessings of fam'ly which we daily receive,
a safe place with Him in whom we believe.
I believe when I see a toddler try
balancing on feet with arms raised
trusting mom and dad ready on standby.
Because children learn by not giving up,
parents learn by treasuring family -
God's special place, safe within His hands, Yup!
