Dear Dad, your work so grand,
Made life easy, held my hand.
Made life easy, held my hand.
With your wealth, I learned so much,
From good schools, your gentle touch.
From good schools, your gentle touch.
Your rules, like gold, so clear,
Made me better, year by year.
Your advice, a guiding light,
Taught life’s worth, with all its might.
Taught life’s worth, with all its might.
Your words, a steady fire,
Fueled my dreams, lifted me higher.
Your warnings, a shield so strong,
Kept me safe from all that’s wrong.
Kept me safe from all that’s wrong.
Your sacrifices, a loving art,
Shaped the person in my heart.
Your smile, a sunbeam bright,
Filled my days with pure delight.
Filled my days with pure delight.
Thank you, Dad, for all you’ve done,
A thank you’s not enough, not one.
A blessing, you, a gift so true,
My reason to live, because of you.
My reason to live, because of you.
Now you’re gone, a test I face,
To make you proud, in this new space.
On Father’s Day, and all days near,
You’re in my heart, always held dear.
You’re in my heart, always held dear.
My Papa, love words can’t convey,
I wish I’d said it, yesterday.
I miss you so, it’s true,
But smile, knowing you smile too.
But smile, knowing you smile too.
I pray you’re happy, where you roam,
In heaven’s peace, your peaceful home.
Hold your dad, kiss his brow,
Tell him love, right here and now.
Tell him love, right here and now.
Happy Father’s Day, to all who read,
Make more memories, plant a seed.
Keep smiling on, you’re doing fine,
Happy Father’s Day, truly divine.
Happy Father’s Day, truly divine.
