I have a Father who will never, ever fail me
I have a Father who will never, ever fail me
Jesus is my father
He will never ever fail me
Rock of ages, never ever fail me.

I have a Father who will never, ever fail me.
I have a Father who will never, ever fail me.
Jesus is my father,
He will never ever fail me.
Rock of ages, never ever fail me. 

Lift Him up higher, 
Lift Him up higher, 
The Lord is Good 
I will lift Him up higher 

Bulie Ye Elu (Lift Him up higher)
Bulie Ye Elu (Lift Him up higher)
Jehovah Kachacimma (The Lord is good)
Bulie Ye Elu ( I will Lift Him up higher)
Onyekeruwa kachacimma (Everywhere I go)
Bulie Ye Elu ( I will Lift Him up higher)

Lift Him high, Lift Him high 
High high high high 
Lift Him high, Lift Him high 
High high high high

Adore You, Adore You 
I will put no one before You 
Exalt You, Exalt You 
I have a Father who will never, ever fail me
I have a Father who will never, ever fail me
Jesus is my father
He will never ever fail me
Rock of ages, never ever fail me

Paadah Dadadadadaah 
Paadah Daah Daah Daah 
Padaah Dadadadadaah 

I will praise Him everyday 
I will praise the Lord 
I will praise Him everyday 
I will praise the Lord 

Clap Your hands and praise Him 
Jump around and praise Him 
Wave Your hands and praise Him 
Dance like David, Dance like David 

Who has the final say? 
Jehovah has final say 
Jehovah turns my life around 
He makes a way where seems no way 
Jehovah has the final say 

Jehovah You are the most High 
You are the most high God
