Forever Embraced

[MIRIAM JACOB]

FOREVER EMBRACED


May my life always be in step to

The rhythm of your heart,

Shield me; hold me

In your everlasting arms.

Embrace me; surround me with your love,

May I keep my eyes upon you,

Focused on your glory above.



When I am in your arms

I know that I am safe,

Covered by your feathered wings

Sheltered by your grace.

Your arms are warm and secure

To your arms I can run,

While you hold me Father,

The more like you I become.



Time in your presence renews me

And makes me strong,

Wrapped in my Fathers arms

Where I belong.

I am comforted as you

Speak to me so tenderly,

I cry on your shoulder, and hear

How your heart beats for me.



My Heavenly Father, My daddy,

Abba Father, Oh! how I love thee.

I am your princess; I am your child,

I am yours and you are mine.



Nothing will ever separate me from you

Your love goes on forever,

Eternity, you have placed in my heart;

Eternally we will be together.

I could go to the depths of the ocean

And your love will reach me,

I could climb the highest mountain

And yet there you will still be.



Your love will embrace me always,

Oh Father, How I long to gaze

Upon your beautiful face.

Let me rest, let me find peace

In your Fatherly arms,

So I may live and breathe to

The beat of your heart.



If I ever slip into the shadows,

And fall into the dark of night,

Daddy, please come to rescue me

By the power of your light.

You keep me, hold me, and protect me

I am safe,

I am in my Heavenly Fathers arms

Forever embraced.
