Father, compassionate and tender Your ears are ever open to my prayers Father, You feed the crying ravens You daily lift the burdens that I bear So I will thank You for Your mercy Chorus You gave Your Son Righteous One for the defiled You gave Your Son By His blood we're reconciled To our God Father, You know that I grow weary I need You to draw near me and be my strength Father, I long to know Your presence For You're the joy of heaven and my King So I will thank You for Your mercy Bridge Whom have I in heaven but You And none on earth compares with You
