The Father You Are To Me

Verse 1 the closer I come to you Lord The Father you are to me Running to and fro oh oh oh The Father you are to me Having nowhere else to go The Father you are to me Well you have shown me the way you shown me the way Verse 2 You are what you are to me And for this I thank thee Lord Jesus your everything but this I breathe I am so thankful and I believe You are the Father to me Verse 3 The father you are to me Even closer to my heart I would never part From you Lord If I could travel afar I visit every in each star I just be a few feet away you are what you are to me The Father you are to me I would walk trillion and trillions and trillions of miles just to say Lord have your way You are the Father you are to me Chorus: Like the shell around the nuts Your hardness I do trust but this I must Like the smell within the wind Nose buds bloom your fragrance in the air all the time and everywhere winter or June But this I breathe the father you are to me The Taste from your lips Lord you caress Me with Your Kiss Lord and old The tunnel you speak it loud and there it was it is alive ( man )you are what you are to me 01/18/10 Written by James Edward Lee Sr From anthology "Change is Going to Come"
