Lyrics

Chorus
How great is Your love, Father,
That You call me Your own.
You’ve brought me into Your family;
Oh, what kindness You have shown!
I draw near to You, Father
And lift my voice in praise.
For the joy of being Your child
I will thank You all my days.

Verse 1
It’s You who held me by the hand
And taught me how to walk
Intently You were listening
As I learned how to talk
Since I was born You’ve carried me
In Your arms, close to Your heart
You’re eager to spend time with me;
We need never be apart.

Repeat chorus

Verse 2
So intimately You know me
You see all that I do
Even what I’m thinking
Is not hidden from You.
You long for me with compassion
Even when I go astray.
When I turn back, You run to me
And lead me gently in Your way

Repeat chorus

Verse 3
As my Father, You delight
In me; I make You smile
You sing to me a love song
All because I am Your child.
How can I do anything
But love You in return?
Only for You, my Father,
My soul within me yearns.

Repeat chorus 2x

Ending
For the joy of being Your child
I will thank You all my days.
