"Come To The Father" Lyrics

You call us over the heads
Of all the idols we make
You call us down from our tower
From your throne in the sky

You call us out of the storm
In the cool of the day
You ask us what it is that we have done

You make us wish we were not
What we know that we are
You promise you will take care
Of what's out of our hands

You put the Word in the world
When the time was just right
And He died for the things we have done

And He says:

Come to the Father
All sons and daughters
Life is the Promise, Mine is the Power
Hold up each other
You are sisters and brothers
Nothing can take You from Me

You called us out of the dark
That we thought was the light
You gave us Faith in the shape
That we know You can fill

We learned to hear who we were
In the sound of Your Name
We hear the whisper of what is to come

Come to the Father
All sons and daughters
Life is the Promise, Mine is the Power
Hold up each other
You are sisters and brothers
Nothing can take You from Me

It is a new kind of love
That gives what it would receive
It is a new kind of worship
For a God with no needs

It is a new kind of hope
In a world that still bleeds
And now we wait for Your Kingdom to come

Come to the Father
All sons and daughters
Life is the Promise, Mine is the Power
Hold up each other
You are sisters and brothers
Nothing can take You from Me
