Dear Father

Lyrics

Blessed I am, bless I will
I'm the one, I can still
Overcome, and embrace
All this, misery and hate

Take me by the hand, lead me down the road
Loosen my grip and lighten my load
Help me take the path less traveled by
Help me understand the reasons why

Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won

Dear father

Blessed you are, bless you will
You're the one, with me still
Give me strength, to undo
All the, hurting people do

Take me by the hand, lead me down the road
Loosen my grip and lighten my load
Help me take the path less traveled by
Help me understand all the reasons why

Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won

Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father
Without your help, dear father

I would be all alone
In the dark
No one to comfort me
Who listens to my heart

Take me by the hand, lead me down the road
Loosen my grip and lighten my load
Help me take the path less traveled by
Help me understand all the reasons why

Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won

Dear father, forgive me
I don't know what I've done
Dear father, please guide and protect me
I'll return when my battle is won

Without your help, dear father...
