In My Father's Arms by Charles M HarrisonIn my fathers arms
is a most comforting place.
I know when I am troubled
there I can hide my face.
I know when I am sad
he will lift me up.
When I thirst for a drink
he will fill my cup.
In the darkness when I am afraid
he will bring a light.
He will hold me close,
comfort me and take away my fright.
In my fathers arms
I can plainly see,
All the love he has to give
is waiting there for me.
I can think of no other place
that I would rather be.
Than looking into my fathers eyes
with his arms all around me.
