Forget not the words that gently guide, As children, in His love abide. Despise not when the Lord corrects, His chastening hand our path protects. Nor faint when rebuked by Him, For love's correction, though it's grim, Is meant to shape and make us whole, And purify the seeking soul. Embrace the discipline He gives, For in His wisdom, truly lives, A deeper purpose, grand and vast, A future where true joys will last. So let us heed His loving call, And rise above when trials befall. With hearts attuned to His command, We'll walk in faith, hand in hand. Oh, Heavenly Father, full of love and care, You chasten us, Your children, everywhere. Not as a judge, but with a gentle hand, You guide us to a holy, promised land. Father, let us not resent Your way, But seek Your will and in Your Word obey. Lead us in paths of righteousness and light, To glorify Your name with all our might. Like earthly fathers, full of care, Who chasten children they hold dear, Our Heavenly Father, ever true, Disciplines in love, for me and yo Not as a judge with stern decree, But gently molds us, wild and free. No condemnation in His gaze, For those in Christ, in endless days. His touch is parental, kind, and mild, To shape us in His image, styled. Not bound by rules, but led by grace, He guides us to a holy place. To grow in Him, His ways to learn, For our own good, our hearts to turn. His glory shines in all we do, A testament to love so true. Oh, Heavenly Father, full of love and care, You chasten us, Your children, everywhere. Not as a judge, but with a gentle hand, You guide us to a holy, promised land. Father, let us not resent Your way, But seek Your will and in Your Word obey. Lead us in paths of righteousness and light, To glorify Your name with all our might. Father, let me not resent, The discipline that You have sent. For in Your love, I understand, You guide me with a gentle hand. Help me to want what You desire, To seek Your will, my heart's true fire. The object of Your loving care, To teach Your Word, beyond compare. Lead me in paths of righteousness, Your holy name, I will confess. For in Your wisdom, I confide, In every step, You are my guide. Through trials, Lord, I trust in You, Your love sustains me, ever true. With grateful heart, I humbly pray, To walk with You, day by day.
