[Intro]
Praise be to You, Father of all light, first and last, our guiding sight.
We lift our hearts, we lift our hands, grateful for Your steadfast grace.
[Verse 1]
God our Father, source of every day, You’re steady when the storms arise.
We thank You for Your home of mercy, shelter in our weary skies.
You taught us faith through quiet prayers, Your love a patient, guiding flame.
We sing Your praise for who You are, and call Your holy name.
[Chorus]
Thank You, God, for Your endless care, first Father of all hearts.
For every gift Your mercy pours, for every fresh new start.
And though we thank You, Father God, for all that You impart,
We also lift up earthly dads who show us how to start.
[Verse 2]
Lord, thank the fathers who stayed close—at home, at work, and in our days,
Who mend a broken bicycle wheel or mend a heart with patient ways.
They stand humbly by the doorway, ready with a steady, listening ear,
Their quiet strength a living hymn to cherish and revere.
[Chorus]
Thank You, God, for Your endless care, first Father of all hearts.
For every gift Your mercy pours, for every fresh new start.
And though we thank You, Father God, for all that You impart,
We also lift up earthly dads who show us how to start.
[Bridge]
We praise You for the fathers near and far, a light that guides us home,
From Your example we learn love's patient art, in every mile we roam.
[Chorus]
Thank You, God, for Your endless care, first Father of all hearts.
For every gift Your mercy pours, for every fresh new start.
And though we thank You, Father God, for all that You impart,
We also lift up earthly dads who show us how to start.
[Outro]
Glory to You, Almighty Father, and to earthly dads we sing,
May gratitude fill every home and every living thing.
