The Father's Song Lyrics

It ain't always easy for a man

To build a life his family understands

But thank you pops I know you did your best

Because of what you gave our family's blessed

It takes a lot to be a righteous man

And I don't think we fully comprehend

When we're young we see through shaded lens

Thank God I know my father as my friend

You were working, while you were building

You were loving, while you were leading

You were sacrificing, while you were teaching

Paying silent prices, while you were being

Father, Father

I just wanna thank you

Thank you for loving me

Daddy

Father, Father

I just wanna celebrate

Everything you are to me

Daddy

Father, Father

I Just wanna thank you

Thank you for loving me

Daddy

Father, Father

I just wanna celebrate

Everything you are to me

Daddy

You're that special of me

You help me understand just who I am

You always make time for me

And I'm so grateful

At the movies or the park, yea

Playing outside after dark

Riding down the avenue with you

Or firing up that grill for barbecue

Who's your daddy

Laid back and smooth

Loud or loquacious

Calm and cool

Hype or audacious

Pops sewing seeds

So we enjoy the shade

He's shares wisdom

And we all get paid

Like a lion in the jungle

He don't need to roar

But every now and then

He'll let you know who's boss

He's superman

My hero, saving the day

He's standing for justice

Ready to bless us

Spiritual soldier

Man of Jehovah

I'm proud to be your child

In case I haven't told ya

So thank you pops

For all you've given to me

For all the late nights spent

Just talking with me

For all the times I didn't get it

You were patient with me

For helping me be

More than I thought I could be

Yeah, here's to you pops

Dad, daddy, or papa

I love you so much

Cause you're my father

Father, Father

I just wanna thank you

Thank you for loving me

Daddy

Father Father

I just wanna celebrate

Everything you are to me

Daddy

Abba Father Abba Father

Abba Father Abba Father
