lyrics

FATHER TO THE ABUSED

Verse 1

All the lies that you heard, whispered in your ear
Let me speak my words of love to you
All the scars that you bear, the pain you endure
I see all you're going through
Give it all to me, I can take it all for you
Pour your heart to me I can take it all for you

Verse 2

The touches you felt wounding your heart
Let me touch you with my healing hands
The trust that you gave, all torn apart
Shattered to a million pieces
But I know who you are; I've called you by name
Know that you are loved; I've called you by name

Bridge

I am jealous for you,
Child you are mine, won by the blood
Blood of my son
I gave it all, gave you my best,
Gave you my son

Chorus

To lavish all my love on you
Love so pure embracing you
Open up your heart, receive, it's true
Know that I'm your father
And you're my beloved child [Last tag on chorus:

Verse 3

When you're finally home
I'll Hold you in my arms, wipe away the tears from your face
I'll place upon you, my robe of righteousness
All things will be made new
You will reign with me; I'll sing over you my child
With cherubim and seraphim, I will sing over you my child
