THANK YOU DAD.

Thank you Dad,

for giving us a very special gift.

Its the most important gift of all,

That only love can give.

You read us the Bible at bedtime

and taught us how to pray.

You made sure we made it to church every Sunday.

And even though

we acted like we didn’t hear a thing,

When I’m in church today,

I hear an old familiar ring.

I’ve learned alot through all these years,

through the good times and the bad.

I want you to know,

I thank God every night for you Dad.

I can’t imagine

how it would be to live life day by day…

Not knowing God, not knowing love,

not knowing how to pray.

It would be so cold, so lonely,

so sad a life I know.

And it’s all because of you, Dad.

God’s love – we’ve been shown.

So Dad we want to thank you

on this very special day.

Because of you – we now know

the true meaning of Father’s Day.
