A Gift- -
Old Dad
I'm glad you had given me
a gift
You gave me
How to save money
You often said it's not what you earn
But it's what you do with what you get
a gift
O dad you gifted me provision a good provider
You made in my Eye Site righteous decisions
Worked for what you needed and want
a gift
O Dad, you giving me your name
a gift
a roof a home a bed to lay in
a gift
And if I could live my life over again
I thank Father God for making me your son
a gift
A family time against all of us
Living together a grande provider
On welfare never on welfare
Co-Creator of my life
O Dad
a gift
Of always working
Never lazy, sick or laid-off jobs or work
Oh, you are the special gift you were
You were on passed on
Now yet he live on in My Brother and Me
My Lord God
My savior my Earthly mother and father my mom and dad You are that gift
.......a gift
