Grace Became My Father

[Verse 1]
I remember empty chairs at the table
Silent birthdays
Names I never knew
But You stepped into the space I was hiding
Called me “child
” and every word rang true
[Pre-Chorus]
When I felt abandoned
You were standing near
When I feared the future
You erased that fear
[Chorus]
Even when it’s fatherless
You became my Father
Grace has written over this
I’m claimed
I’m covered
I believe in Your deep
Deep love
I will sing Your goodness from above
Even when it’s fatherless
You became my Father (yeah)
[Verse 2]
You rewrote the story I was given
Pulled the shame and sorrow from my name
Now I stand inside a house I belong in
Every room is filled with steady praise
[Pre-Chorus]
When I felt forgotten
You remembered me
When my heart was breaking
You set my heart free
[Chorus]
Even when it’s fatherless
You became my Father
Grace has written over this
I’m claimed
I’m covered
I believe in Your deep
Deep love
I will sing Your goodness from above
Even when it’s fatherless
You became my Father
[Bridge]
I’m not alone
I’m not forsaken
Your arms of mercy
Are my foundation
I’m gonna praise
I’m gonna worship
Every breath I take
Says “Lord
You’re worth it” (oh)
[Chorus]
Even when it’s fatherless
You became my Father
Grace has written over this
I’m claimed
I’m covered
I believe in Your deep
Deep love
I will sing Your goodness from above
Even when it’s fatherless
You became my Father
You became my Father
