A child of God

The song I'm probably falling asleep to, resting peacefully in the arms of my Father:

Child of God
With every breath, with every thought
From what is seen, to the deepest part
I offer all that I've come to be
To know Your love, fathering me

Father, You're all I need
My soul's sufficiency
My strength when I am weak
The love that carries me
Your arms enfold me
'Til I am only
A child of God

With every step on this journey's walk
And wisdom's songs that the soul has sought
I give myself unreservantly
To know your love, fathering me

"Because you are sons, God sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, 'Abba, Father.' So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has mad you also an heir." Galations 4:6-7


You Are A Child Of Mine (Mark Schultz and Chris Eaton)
I’ve been hearing voices
Telling me that I could
Never be what I wanna be.
They’re binding me with lies,
Haunting me at night,
And saying there’s nothing to believe.
Somewhere in the quietness,
When I’m overcome with loneliness,
I hear You call my name.
And like a father You are near
And as I listen I can hear You say
You are a child of Mine
Born of My own design
And you bear the heart of life.
No matter where you go,
Oh, you will always know
You have been made free in Christ.
You are a child of Mine
And so I listen as You tell me who I am
And who it is I’m gonna be.
And I hang on every word,
Knowing I have heard
I am Yours and I am free
But when I am alone at night
That is when I hear the lie
You’ll never be enough
And though I’m giving into fear
If I listen I can hear You say
You are a child of Mine
