To "Our Father in Heaven" on Father's Day

“Our Father in Heaven” we say

When we start to talk to God.

“Please give us our bread this day,”

As your Son taught while on earth He trod.

How can You be both His Father and ours

When You are God and we are only men?

How can we partake of Your power

When our lives are so full of sin?

Incredible though it may be, but true

You had this plan before time began,

That our sins would be hid in You

When Your Son became a Man.

The love You give freely to us

Is more than we can understand;

All You require is absolute trust

In the One You sent, the Son of Man.

“Father in Heaven, how can we say

Thank You for adoption into Your family?”

On this, what we celebrate as Father’s Day

We remember Your love crucified on a tree.

With a heart full of gratitude, we say,

“We want You to be pleased with us,”

As we remember on this and every day,

You are the Heavenly Father we can trust.
