Dad

When I think of the word “Dad” 
It always makes me so glad
Because a father’s love like yours 
Is the best love a daughter like me can have.

A Dad is someone who show’s love 
In all they say and do
Walking hand and hand
To guide you and lead you 
The Lord’s way.

A Dad has a love that is so deep
Making the big wide ocean seem so small
And I know within my heart I am lucky
Because out of all the Dad’s 
I have the best one of all.

Dad throughout all the years 
That you have been there for me
I just want to say,
I am truly thankful for you each and every day.

Dad may your Birthday be 
Very special, happy, and wonderful just like you
And dad always remember 
“I really love you”
