Metropolitan Boys Choir - Children Of The Heavenly Father Lyrics

Children of the heavenly Father
Safely in his bosom gather
Nestling bird nor star in heaven
Such a refuge ever was given

God his own doth tend and nourish
In his holy courts they flourish
From all evil things he spares them
In his mighty arms he bears them

Though he giveth or he taketh
God his children ne'er forsaketh
His the loving purpose solely
To preserve them pure and holy
