When a perfect Child
Expressed committal to His Father’s business
How much God enjoyed
Being that Father!
As His bosom Son
Walked in the way of His will
How God rejoiced to be
His Father.
And what the Father’s delight
In being the Father whose glory
At the earliest instant
Raised Christ from the dead!
Now with that Son
Sharing His throne
The Father is enjoying
Being His Father.
Now as Christ’s men
Share His place
The Father is enjoying
Being their Father.
And what is His pleasure in saying
“I will be to you for a Father”
To those who follow
The strait path of His will.
