Steadfast God

Steadfast God, always true.
Precious gift of love, I love you.
Where can I go my Lord?
Where can I hide?
Where will I find a deeper, truer love?

Sweetest breath of life, you gave me hope.
When you looked at me, you only smiled.
There’s no law can hold,
Can hold me down.
Only through your eyes am I seen as a child.

You took me in Your embrace.
Never let me go or turned away.
Now we’re side by side,
Father and son.
Now I have found the deepest, truest love.
