Legacy of Our Dear Father

Legacy of Father prevails
Etched in my heart, never fails
Goodness with truth he implanted
Asserts through virtues imparted
Compassion midst prudence does reign
Yes… such and my siblings did gain.

Optimizing servant-leadership
Father* offered loving fellowship.

Fulfilling roles by the Lord’s grace
Attending to home’s needs always
Tested, tried, triumphant indeed
He is champion of kindness’ deed
Ever-living through his portrait
Radiating peace as best trait.

*Proverbs 3:12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
