Hymns - I've Got a Father - Текст песни

I???ve got a Father
We???ve got a Father

Always tried to be home early not late
Didn???t want to see the look on Daddy???s face
When I walked through door
And he???d been waiting on me (waiting on me)
You see I wasn???t afraid of any punishment
Just couldn???t stand the thought I???d disappointed Daddy
One more time
And put a tear in his eye
You see he???s the kind of father always hoped for the best
He was there for me when everyone left (they all left)

Chorus:
And I???ve got a father (father, father)
Don???t want to let him down
He???s got a faith in me
Farther than I can see
His love for me abounds
He???s got plans and dreams (plans and dreams)
Of what he wants me to be
And I don???t wanna disappoint Daddy
???Cause I know he loves me

One day I???m going to make it to that heavenly gate
Can???t wait to see the look on God???s face
When I kneel down before
My one and only Lord (Savior and Lord)
He???ll wrap His arms around me, I???ll climb on His knee
Put my hand on His shoulder, breathe a sigh of relief
At home I???ll be
Eternally
You see He???s the kind of Father never let me down
He???s prepared for me a home and a crown (and a crown)

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
A long time ago a boy left home
Spent all the money he would ever own
Came to himself ready to give up
Then he pictured home and his father???s love

Repeat Chorus

I???ve got a Father (Father, Father)
We???ve got a Father (Father, Father)
You???ve got a Father (Father, Father)
Don???t want to let Him down
