Heavens Arms

father I come before you 
in awe of your Glory and love
surround me with strength
power and beauty 
help me to be as genuine as a dove

Fill my life with kind words
never let me fall behind
may I always love thee 
with arms wide open for all eternity

Show me how to be strong and courageous
when i face trials so I can confess 
may i love your word and fear your name
even when I'm distant and stressed

In you I can overcome tribulations
and be strong for you conquer all
oh, how i stick by every one of your words
then I know you will catch me when I fall
