I wish I knew just where to start; where I could begin
To tell about my Father's love' how it makes me feel within.
It seems no matter what I am, or what I choose to do,
He stays beside me all the while to help and see me through.

I know it's real and always there, but I'll never understand
The great love of my Lord and God that keeps me in His hand.
When I am feeling all alone without a soul to care,
I can feel His loving kindness around me everywhere.

In anger or frustration, He calms my raging sea
And brings the calm peace of my soul flowing back to me.
There's never been a circumstance that I've endured alone.
He's never let me fail or fall, or do it on my own.

His love and mercies are renewed each morning of my life,
Which means that in each day that come, with its trouble and its strife,
That I don't have to worry, or carry that huge load.
No matter my reactions, forgiveness is bestowed.

I just can't see how anyone could live without the Lord;
How all He wants to give can be so easily ignored.
If only I could make them see how wonderful it is
To walk through life just knowing that your hand is held by His.
