A FATHER AND A FRIEND

Music by Micah
Words by Micah and Apollos

(G)Lord, I need Your (D)help as (C)each little one grows (G)bigger,
To be (C)just, teaching them how fair You've (Bm)always (Am)been with (G)me,
To be (Bm)loving, love is (C)what they'll always (D)need.

Chorus one:
'Cause they'll (C)learn to know You by my ways with (G)them.
They're (C)learning how to (G)love and trust by a (Am)sample of a
(C)Father and a (D)friend.(G)

(G)Lord, I need Your (D)help as (C)each young one grows (G)older,
To be (C)firm, as the rock that You have (Bm)been be(Am)neath my (G)feet,
To be (Bm)tender, softening the (C)hardness they will (D)meet.

[Repeat first chorus]

Lord, (Am)help me to be more like (G)You, to be more (Am)loving than I (G)am.
To (Am)gently feed and (C)lead these little (D)lambs.
Each (Am)one's a gift from (G)Heaven, so (Am)precious in Your (G)sight.
I (Am)know I need Your (C)help to guide them (D)right.

Chorus two:
'Cause they'll (C)learn to know You by my ways with (G)them.
They're (C)learning how to (G)love and trust by a (Am)sample of a
(C)Father and a (D)friend.

Chorus three:
Oh, they'll (C)learn to know You by my ways with (G)them.
They're (C)learning how to (G)love and trust by a (Am)sample of a
(C)Father and a (D)friend. Ohhh! (C)-(G)-(C)-(G)-(Am)-(C)-(D)
