Look To the Father

As I look to Heaven an awesome sight I see; it’s my Father looking directly at me.
  With His eyes cast upon me, I sit and ponder the thought I often think of; what
have I done to deserve such a prodigious love; what deeds have I done to deserve such 
merit. Looking back to the past it is not the life of my Father in which I should 
inherit. In a gently and soothing voice He exclaims to me that there is much work indeed to 
be done. It is the ways of the World in which the wicked are plenty and it is you
I send to spread the good news to many. It is you that I have made My call; Thus it
shall be you to spread My word to all. It is you that this burden I must rest; for the life and 
the love of the Lord you must profess. It is you in which I have sent My Son and it will be in 
His name the hearts of many you will have won. It is thus that I see you worthy. So have 
faith my child and I will see that in your steps you will not falter, and always know that you 
can look to your Father.
