More than oxygen I need Your love
More than life-giving food
The hungry dream of
More than an eloquent word
Depends on the tongue
More than a passionate song
Needs to be sung

More than a word could ever say
More than a song could ever convey
I need You more than all of these things
Father I need You more

More than a magnet and steel
Are drawn to unite
More than poets love words
To rhyme as they write
More than the comforting warmth
Of sun in the spring, yeah
More than the eagle loves wind
Under its wings

More than a word could ever say
More than a song could ever convey
I love You more than all of these things, anything
Father I love You more
Your children are crying out
Yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yes, Father we need You, we need You
Oh, We need You, we need You

More than a blazing fire
On a winter's night
More than the tall evergreens
Reach for the light
More than the pounding waves
Long for the shore, oh yeah, yeah
More than these gifts You give
I love You, I love You more

More than a word could ever say
More than a song could ever convey
I love You more than anything
Father I love You more

Yeah
This is
This is the song of a fatherless generation
Crying out
Oh yeah
Oh, Father we need You, we need You
More than oxygen
More than a magnet and steel
Yeah, we need Your love
Your love

Release the Father's love
So the children can play
