Joel Engle The Father I Never Had
Verse 1
There's a little child inside this man, who still does
not understand
Why momma had to die, she didn't say goodbye
Daddy left without a trace, I never even saw his face
Was I to blame, I still feel the pain of hot shattered
like glass that cut my soul to pieces
I never thought I would love again, until I met you
Jesus
Chorus
You're the Father I never had
And Your love never changes, through the good times and
the bad
You're the Father I never had
Just hold me in Your arms and heal me of the past and
be the Father I never had
Verse 2
I was a teenage boy in a small town, standing outside
the crowd
Unwanted and unclaimed, a face without a name, almost
every night I'd cry and cry
Asking the questions why, mom and dad would leave this
lonely son to grieve
The deserts of my years, they were watered with my
tears,
But when I met you face to Face, You wiped away my
fears.
Chorus
Bridge
Although I was rejected, You were my friend
Although I was abandoned, Your love drew me in.....
Oh Your love drew me in...
Chorus
