I
I cannot make a world and hold it in my hand.
I cannot make the lightening flash across the land.
I cannot take a piece of clay and mold it into man.
But I have a father, I have a father who can.
II
I cannot make a cloud ascend it in the sky.
I cannot love humanity so much that I would die.
I cannot even name the stars or count the grains of sand.
But I have a father I have a father who can.
Chorus
Now he sits high ..., and he looks low...,
and he guides my feet wherever I go.
When I don’t understand..., I have a father...,
who can. (I have a father who can.)
