Praise the Father of our Lord,
Honor unto the triune God;
Because He is loved and adored,
As we are worshipping to laud.

The Father of mercy and grace,
And our God who gives comfort;
Willing and ready to embrace,
The good works in our effort.

He comforts from the affliction,
So that we may comfort others;
Giving them needed affection,
For our sisters and brothers.

Through the comfort that we receive,
Overflowing from our God;
Because we truly do believe,
Of the curing those who are flawed.

Cleansing where flawed through forgiveness,
Because of sufferings through Christ;
Supporting them as they confess,
Of iniquities that enticed.

For the comfort of salvation,
Comfort for times that we suffer;
Giving us a new foundation,
Through Jesus Christ who will buffer.

Experience the endurance,
Suffering through the affliction;
Steering us to obedience,
Because of loving affection.

This makes us to stand firm in hope,
For the sufferings that we share;
And enabled for us to cope,
With someone else willing to care.

He has delivered us from death,
Through the comfort He does embrace;
Giving new hope through a new breath,
Coming from His mercy and grace.

Comfort is coming through your prayers,
Then give Him thanks from the relief;
As a part of the gift that God shares,
Allowing you to build belief.
