Father above, look upon me now
How I've come this far, only You know how
You've changed my life, made me whole
All I am now, to You I owe it all
You are reality, You alone are life
You take a heart so dull and make it shine so bright
To burn for You and all You are
A Light in the night, a guiding star You are
Here are all my burdens, I lift them up to You
Your words, they easy my mind
Your gentleness shines through
Giving us hope when hope is all gone
Never retreating, sending us on and on
