For All These 23 Years

there are not enough words to tell you how much we truly care
that you've been our beloved Pastor for all these 23 years
you're a man of compassion who tenderly cares for his congregations
a mentor to the youth and you always promote education

a father of two wonderful daughters and a grandfather to a cute baby boy
a father-in-law to a good man and the husband to an angel who still gives you joy
we thank you Pastor Griffin for being a true disciple of Christ
we thank you for your wisdom, your counsel and your humble approach to life
just keep us in your prayers as we keep you in our hearts
for all there 23 years we celebrate you, a devoted man of God
