Father, Friend

Who can stand a blast of His Mercy, flowing down from heaven's throne?

Pouring over hearts so hurting, hearts that've never known. 

Never known such goodness. Never known such grace. 

Never known the Father, never felt the warmth 

from His face, 

as He beams down on us! Oh what a light so bright! 

His shining smile, 

                    His gentle eyes, 

                                        no mask to cover, 

                                                                no reason to hide 

His loving kindness - He's not ashamed! to call us His children, to call us by name! 

He loves us! He does! He's our Father and our Friend. 

He loves us! He does! And to this there is no end!
