I love you for you are my child

Lyrics

Verse 1 As the child runs to the arms of his father, Says, “Daddy, hold me, for I’m so afraid.” So God wants to lift us up when we’re in trouble, He longs to hold us in His warm embrace. Chorus He says, “Let me hold you, child, for I’m your Father.” He says, “I’ll carry you when storms of life are wild; You see I really understand, for I’m your Father, And I love you for you are my child.” Verse 2 As a dad comes to his child when he’s in trouble, Says, “Child come here, together we can work it out.” So God cares for us and wants to lift our burden, He says, “Just lean on me; I’ll turn your life around.” Chorus He says, “Let me hold you, child, for I’m your Father.” He says, “I’ll carry you when storms of life are wild; You see I really understand, for I’m your Father, And I love you for you are my child.” Verse 3 I’m so thankful, God, that I can call You Father; I’ve been adopted, now I’m in Your family. Thru Jesus’ blood I’ve been redeemed, now You’re my Father, And I belong to You, Your child I’ll ever be. Chorus He says, “Let me hold you, child, for I’m your Father.” He says, “I’ll carry you when storms of life are wild; You see I really understand, for I’m your Father, And I love you for you are my child.” Repeat You see He really understands, for He’s my Father, And He loves me for I am His child.
