mothers and fathers

help your sons and daughters

fill up our hearts with honor

cover our souls with humility

help us honor the older

bring us close to your presence

fill our minds with obedience

 

help us to do what you say,

as we honor our mothers and fathers

place mothers and fathers in our hearts

we want to honor them

turn their hearts to us,

as our hearts turn to them

help our mothers and fathers lead us to you

 

lead your sons and daughters

fill us with more of your power

help us to pursue you

like our mothers and fathers do

place mothers and fathers in our hearts

we want to honor them

turn their hearts to us,

as our hearts turn to them

help our mothers and fathers lead us to you

we come to submission

we humble ourselves to the old generation

we can’t reach revival on our own

we can’t run alone

 place mothers and fathers in our hearts

we want to honor them

turn their hearts to us,

as our hearts turn to them

help our mothers and fathers lead us to you

help our mothers and fathers lead us to you
