HE RESTORED MY FATHER
(Intro – Soft Piano)
There were nights... I cried where no one could see. There were questions... Only God could answer. But when His time came... He restored what I thought was lost forever.
Verse 1
I grew up chasing shadows, Searching every face. Looking for a father's love, Trying to fill an empty place.
Every birthday came and left, Every Christmas felt the same. I smiled so people wouldn't notice, But inside I carried pain.
I asked the Lord, "Why was my story different?" "Why did I have to grow up Feeling forgotten?"
Still, His hand was holding me, Even when I couldn't see. His grace was writing chapters That my eyes had yet to read.
Pre-Chorus
The tears became my prayers, The prayers became my hope. The hope became a promise, That God would never let me go.
Chorus
He restored my father... He restored my heart. He gathered every broken piece That had been torn apart.
The years could not defeat What His mercy had prepared. The God who heals the wounded Brought my father back right here.
I stand today forgiven. I stand today set free. God restored my father... And He restored me.
Verse 2
The day we met again, Time seemed to stand still. Words became unnecessary, Love spoke louder than we will.
I saw the years upon your face, You saw the child in mine. Some wounds take years to heal, But God is always right on time.
No blame... No bitterness... No anger anymore.
Just two hearts Walking through A brand-new open door.
Pre-Chorus
What man called impossible, Heaven called complete. The God who calms the oceans Brought us both to peace.
Chorus
He restored my father... He restored my heart. He gathered every broken piece That had been torn apart.
The years could not defeat What His mercy had prepared. The God who heals the wounded Brought my father back right here.
I stand today forgiven. I stand today set free. God restored my father... And He restored me.
Bridge (Build)
If you're still waiting... Don't give up.
If you're still hurting... Don't lose hope.
Because God still writes endings Nobody can explain.
He still rebuilds families. He still removes shame.
He still answers prayers After many years.
He still turns sorrow Into songs of victory.
Instrumental Break
(Choir repeats)
He restored... He restored... He restored my father... He restored me...
Final Chorus (Key Change)
He restored my father... He restored my soul.
He took a broken story And made it beautiful.
The little boy who wondered If he was loved at all...
Now stands before the world Declaring...
"My Father in Heaven Never left me. And in His perfect time, He gave me back My earthly father too."
Mercy wrote our story.
Grace became our song.
Love won the battle.
God was faithful all along.
Outro
No more questions.
No more fear.
No more wondering If I belonged.
Today...
I know who I am.
I'm a son...
Loved by God.
Blessed with restoration.
And forever grateful That peace found its way Into my father's arms... And into mine.
