My Father Eternal

I acknowledge You' are my eternal Father, I was
Born an earthly birth, in a corner of a universe 
That drew its breath, from Your word rather
More You were, and are and will be; no mortal
Thing çan ever conquer me.' Though i know my
Parents bore and nurtured me, its you who alone
Who own the whole; the spirit heart and soul of
Me.' You sent your son to, get me freed.!  from any
Trace of death dark seed, co-heir with Christ my
Opened eyes do see, i lift Your name in all in Majesty
My only hope and trust and guide, i place in You 
Forever and ever, and much more besides.! I thank
You Father, for victory won, and the Holy Spirit dear
Lord; who always overcomes, the shadows of any fear.

I was uncertain of who you spoke because you didn't capitalize the first You/This shows your beautiful love for our Lord Joe. A most uplifting and gracious Fathers Day gift!
