The Perfect ABBA

The Perfect Abba

You are the perfect Father.
Your love and mercy know no bounds.
You offer me hope and peace.

I am a prodigal, prone to rebellion.
I stumble and fall, set in my ways.
I am blind to what You offer me.

You are my Creator and Savior.
Your word is light and truth.
You gave Yourself for me.

I am purchased by Your blood.
I cannot save myself.
I am just one tiny grain of sand.

You are my deliverance.
Your desire is for my well-being.
You are with me always.
