1. Father,
Drive out all our fears,
Draw every heart to you,
And fill us with your perfect love
So we will be made new.
2. Father,
Heal our faithlessness,
Forgiving every sin,
And clothe us all in perfect love
For you, our heavenly King.
3. Father,
Bind our souls together
Till we live as one,
Then we will dwell in perfect love,
Becoming like your Son.
