O Perfect Father

O Perfect Father Lyrics

Steph Macleod, Lucy Grimble

{Verse 1}
O Perfect Father on Heaven's throne
Who gave my orphan heart a home
Treasured and destined before all time
Forever claimed by Your love divine
What wondrous kindness shown to me
To know that I'm eternally
A chosen child of God above
The perfect Father with perfect love

{Verse 2}
You never fail me, You never leave
You will provide my ev'ry need
Joyful or burdened, I seek Your face
O Father, You never turn away
Your presence is my perfect peace
No other place I long to be
A chosen child of God above
The perfect Father with perfect love

{Verse 3}
Whom shall I fear in the days to come?
You are the great Almighty One
Formed in Your image, I bear Your name
Yet in your heart still my heart remains
My silent pray'r You always hear
You cradle ev'ry sec-ret tear
A chosen child of God above
The perfect Father with perfect love

{Verse 4}
Father! My Father! Who reigns on High
Your sov'reign name be glorified!
Lead me through life with great words of truth
My passion, Father, to worship You
What joy to serve You all my days
I live to follow and obey
A chosen child of God above
The perfect Father with perfect love

What joy to follow all my days
I live to follow and obey
A chosen child of God above
The perfect Father with perfect love
