If life is like a box of chocolates...reach for the hope filled kind!
(and have a little chocolate for your soul)
​
To The Everlasting Father
​
To the Everlasting Father who is ever by my side
Whose mercy and whose goodness is as deep as it is wide
To the One who keeps His promise even when my faith is weak
And who understands my heart when I do not have words to speak
I will praise You for Your goodness when the sun is shining down
You have shown me through Your Son that you can make a cross a crown
You promise me sufficient strength for all You call me to
There is not a circumstance I face that is unknown to You
To the Everlasting Father who Eternity prepares
Yet whom all of my concerns about this fleeting life still shares
To the One who helps me see things are not always as they seem
And the One who can be trusted all that’s broken to redeem
I will praise You for provision in the big things and the small
You have hung the stars in place and You are Sovereign over all
You have given me a joy the world could never understand
For I call you “Abba Father” and You hold me in Your hand

“As a father shows compassion to his children, so the LORD shows compassion to those who fear him. For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust.” Psalm 103:13-14
