Father's Hands
A Father's Journey: Embracing Divine Plans
Lyrics
I hold you near
I am close to you
With your mother resting by my side
Your mother is resting beside me
Is it wonder or fear
Is it amazement or anxiety
Tell me which one do you see when you look back in my eyes
Tell me what emotion you perceive when you look into my eyes
The promise of the prophets
The commitment made by prophets
The hope of every tribe
The aspiration of every community
Your little fingers reaching out to me tonight
Your small fingers reaching out to me tonight
After all this time, why He's chosen us
Despite the passage of time, why has He chosen us?
I will never understand
I will never comprehend
As I hold you now, I will have to trust
While holding you now, I must have faith
Though I'm just a simple man
Even though I'm just an ordinary man
You are in your Father's hands
You are under the protection of your Father
I've been told all my life
Throughout my life, I've been informed
That my blood is from King David's line
That my lineage traces back to King David
Ever since I was a boy
Since childhood, I've pondered the experience of being a king
I've wondered what being a king was like
Well, somehow I'll raise you with the knowledge
Well somehow I'll raise you knowing
That one day you'll wear a crown
One day you'll wear a crown
How will I guide you to that point from our current situation
How will I get you there from where we are right now
Despite the passage of time, why has He chosen us?
After all this time, why He's chosen us
I will never comprehend
I will never understand
While holding you now, I must have faith
As I hold you now, I will have to trust
Even though I'm just an ordinary man
Though I'm just a simple man
You are under the protection of your Father
You are in your Father's hands
I will be there by your side
I will be there by your side
I'll protect you, my son, and comfort you when you cry
I'll protect you son, and hold you when you cry
I will defend you with my life
I will guard you with my life
Son of God and son of mine
Son of God and son of mine
Despite the passage of time, why has He chosen us?
After all this time, why He's chosen us
I will never comprehend
I will never understand
While holding you now, I must have faith
As I hold you now, I will have to trust
Even though I'm just an ordinary man
Though I'm just a simple man
All of this is part of the divine plan
This is all part of the plan
You are under the protection of your Father
You are in your Father's hands
All is in accordance with the divine plan
