You are our Father; redeemer Lord are you Why must we wander, so far away from your truth? Open the heavens, return to our side You are our Father, Lord, our guide
Come back to your servants now, give back, O Lord, your light The pathways are parting now we choose, yet you hide from our sight; rupture the heavens, come back to our lives: come down to your people, Lord of life
My shepherd is the Lord, there is nothing I shall need Fresh and green are the pastures where he’ll lead
Your world doesn’t know you now, they close their eyes to you O where are the wondrous deeds you’d do, all for those who were true? Sunder the heavens, and come to our aid Lord, look how your people stand afraid
Where is your answer? I cry my days to you A worm and no man am I, dispised by all in my gloom Lord, will you hear me, take head of my heart? O why must you let your love depart?
