A Father's Love

With your grace, Father, daily I sustain
to keep my mind from failing in the midst
of all the rapture felt within the pain
haunting morning passions that exist.

No man can love me greater than you do
or fill my heart with quenchable desire
and seeing me the darkest moments through
ensures my own life I don’t deem expire.

The enemies that curse me, take away
helping them to know they can’t suppress.
Kind mercies you endow from day to day
is privacy I to them need not confess.

Father, an ever-present care is thee!
I rejoice in feeling your love for me.
