THE FATHER’S HEART – Neha Anna Thomas

A father’s heart you were given, when we entered into the world one day

A heart to give, a heart to love, and a heart to pray

Years have passed, but the heart has remained beating

Beating for the ones in your care until this day

Your father’s heart has followed us, all the years of our life

Followed us in our ups and downs, even through our strife

This heart has known our joys and pains, even known our fears

This beating heart has gone the distance, running the race with pride and might

Your father’s heart has aged today, but continues to beat as if it were yesterday

Beating in rhythm with our little hearts, in your care to watch over and pray With so much beating and so much toiling, who will watch over the father’s heart?

Who will nurture, and nurse and heal the father’s heart today?

A father’s heart you were given, when we entered into the world one day

A heart to give, a heart to love, and a heart to pray

This heart is not man-made, nor was it purchased or self-taught

But this heart was endowed to you, by the One with the greatest Father’s Heart

This Father’s Heart is like no other

This Father’s Heart loved even before it was loved

This Father’s Heart blessed you many years ago, with your own father’s heart

So would you take your precious gifted heart, and beat in rhythm with the Father’s Heart today

Beat in love, joy, and hope, and also in purity, peace, and prayer

So that your father’s heart will not grow weary, or tired and faint, will all of life’s many cares

But grow in power and strength and might, always and forever watched over by our heavenly Father’s Heart

TODAY IS THE START OF SOMETHING NEW – Neha Anna Thomas

Take a breath, look around you now
Watch your step, don’t lose your head in the crowd
Today is the start of something new
Hold your hands, move ahead in love,
Help each other, build one another up
Today is the start of something new

In a world, where hope is dim,
In a world, where love grows cold
May you all be a beacon of light
Look to the Father up above
The source of hope, joy, and love
And for ever He will lead you through

Say a prayer , for the ones you love
Lift their burdens, to the Lord above
Today, is the start of something new
Build a home where love abounds
Give away all your fears and doubts
Today is the start of something new….

Chorus

When the road gets tough don’t fear
There’s a Lord who is ever so near,
And He’ll give you grace, when strength can’t be found
When the trials pass at last
Don’t let go of heavens hands
May your steps be steady in the way of the Lord

SO IN THIS MOMENT – Neha Anna Thomas

Father God, though I may not understand
Everything I am going through
I just want to thank You
You hold my hand,
Shepherd me through feary storms
Show me what is right from wrong
I just want to thank You

So in this moment I sing
A song of praise to my King
Lord, I worship You
So let us open our hearts
And raise up our hands
To the One who deserves all the praise

Thank you Lord, for what You have done
Thank You, Lord for what You are going to do
Thank You, Lord for your Son
Thank You, Lord, for this life anew

Father God, every day You’re teaching me
Showing me what life can be
I just want to thank You
I may not know all the plans You have for me
But I know that You love me
So I just want to thank You

So in this moment….
