Dad

Recalling fondest scenes from 'yesterday'....
The things they did...amusing things they'd say...
Three little boys...grown up and moved away...
And NOW...I love them MORE...
MORE than I loved BEFORE!
I'm STILL....their dad....

Three little fellows...scrubbed, and put to bed...
But NOT before we knelt...and prayers were said...
We asked that throughout life...they'd all be led...
By God's eternal Grace...
That WE might see His face...
I'm just.....their dad.

Along our journey...over many years...
We've shared each others' joys...and shed some tears...
We've dealt with sorrow, conflict, doubt and fears...
And we're still BEST of friends....
The kind that NEVER ends....
I'm proud I'm "dad"....

Then, one day on a brighter shore we'll stand...
We'll hear a concert by an Angel Band...
ETERNALLY...together,,,in that Land....
The Land of peace and rest...
Where we will find....HIS best.....
WE'VE found ....OUR Dad!
