MY FATHER'S ARMS
Lyric by Allison Lynn
Music by Allison Lynn and Gerald Flemming c. 2005

VERSE 1
I'm standing in the playground
While the big kids call me names.
My clothes are wrong. I can't run fast.
I'm left out of their games.
My Father always knows my pain,
And He wipes away my tears.
And lets me know that I belong
Despite my doubts and fears.

CHORUS
My Father's arms are open wide, And he holds me gently inside them.
When I'm alone, when I'm afraid, I am safe in my Father's arms.

VERSE 2
I got the call all lovers fear.
It said, "Your husband's gone."
My screams and tears could not be stopped.
The world turned upside-down.
But then my Father reached for me,
And let me cry all night.
He couldn't change my circumstance
Yet I knew I'd be all right.

CHORUS
My Father's arms are open wide, And he holds me gently inside them.
When I'm alone, when I'm afraid, I am safe in my Father's arms.

BRIDGE
My Father-God will keep me
Cause He hears my smallest prayer.
Till joy comes in the morning,
He'll be there.

CHORUS
My Father's arms are open wide, And he holds me gently inside them.
When I'm alone, when I'm afraid, I am safe in my Father's arms.
