A Life That is Not My Own
A LIFE THAT IS NOT MY OWN
W/M: Bob Bennett
This is my Father's world
I trust these days are in His plan
I am my Father's child
He holds my life in loving hand
I cry out loud -- He shares my tears
I'm so afraid -- He calms my fears
O Lord, I offer up these many years
Of a life that is not my own
This child is a gift to me
Though he must grow away, apart
I never knew that God and I
Could share a tender father's heart
And when the distance is too hard to bear
When it's so painful to love and to care
May I be grateful for the time that I could share
In a life that is not my own
A life that is not my own
We will sleep under the same moon tonight
We will walk under the same sun tomorrow
Someday to gather in our one true home
Where no goodbyes can cause this kind of sorrow
This is my Father's world
With all the questions it can bring
I am my Father's child
Though I am broken, I can sing
Of all the things that He has done
A Father offering up His Son
And a life like mine that has become
A life that is not my own
A life that is not my own
