Run to me

Stop the traffic

Get out of the car

Close the door

And open your arms

Run to me

Hide in me

Use me as a blanket

Cover yourself with me

Listen to me

Look to me

Hold me close

Tell me to never leave

I’ll never go

If you are hanging I’ll stay

If you are falling I’ll fall with you

If you glide, I’ll hang with you

I’ll be your safety net

In times of trouble

Keep me close

With a blanket of trust

When the worlds collide

I’m here to protect you

When darkness falls

I’ll shine for you

Let me love you

Sit in my silence

Listen to me

I am your Father
