My Father Was/is Lyrics - Fred Hammond

Who was there when I first opened up my eyes? 

And who was there to heal the hurt 

When I first learned to ride? 

And who would never miss a game? 

Celebrate me won or loss? 

Yes my Father was 

When adolescent years had come who helped me understand? 

And when the winning point was scored 

Who in victory raised my hand? 

And when I hung my head in shame 

Who was there to lift it up? 

Yes my Father was 

My Heavenly Father has always been there 

For my earthly one was gone yeah 

He's taken care of me 

And I only want to be just like Him 

Now that I'm a full grown man 

Who can wipe my tears away? 

And who's on the other end 

When I lift my heart to pray? 

And who's always by my side 

To help me make it through? 

Yes my Father is 

My Heavenly Father is 

Yes he is 

Yes my Father is
