This is our perfect Father


This is our perfect Father
our Creator and Redeemer,
loving us enough to sacrifice
to give, to offer, us His Son

A Father like the prodigal’s father
loving him in spite of himself,
running to him out on the road
wrapping him in love

Not human, mortal,
not of flesh, broken,
a more excellent Father
is seated in heaven above
