Elder and so wise you are
Maker of Earth and of the stars
How could one begin to say
Thank you Father for all our days
The simple things are all you seek
From children yours without you weak
But stray some do and in our act
We lose focus on these the facts
From dust you made Adam who sinned
Seduced by Eve that could have been
The last of man who roamed the land
Forgive them both, you'd understand
The Earth you'd flood it was to be
But spoke and Noah would be free
Of harms way his family too
Yet save them all is what you'd do
Your people cried each day and night
To be released from Pharaoh's might
Then you would send Moses to lead
Freeing those slaved, my King and Liege
Your heart would send your only son
Birthed by Mary your love she won
The years would pass and this young man
Would heal the sick and save those damned
You would allow and let man choose
Jesus, Barabbas which one would lose
Their life for crimes that did not pay
On cross hammered your son would lay
This Fathers day I wish I could
Exchange my life for you who stood
Through all the doubts, my King Ignored
Yet still you knock unanswered doors
