We take our refuge in Your hands

2. You send Your angels down to us,
   Abba, O dearest Father,
   to stand as guards around our house,
   because You are our Father.
3. You cradle us within Your arms,
   Abba, O dearest Father.
   How blest to be a child of Yours,
   Abba, O dearest Father!
4. In You, O Lord, we rest secure,
   Abba, O dearest Father.
   You comfort us in pain and fear,
   Abba, O dearest Father.
5. When all around us terror reigns,
   Abba, O dearest Father,
   let us behold our Saviour’s face.
   We want to trust You, Father.
6. Father, we call upon Your name,
   Abba, O dearest Father.
   Filled with good courage, we proclaim,
   “We truly have a Father.”
