My Father's Birthday

You've thought us to kno that: The flash of the lightening is never to blind us The roar of the ocean is never to swallow us The heat of the sun is never to melt us The scream of the thunder is never to deafen us The darkness of the night is not to swallow us All are but o prove to us the greatness, supremacy and sovereignty, of our loving creator whose affection and protection knows no bound on us. Dad, we are happy to have learned at your foot Manners, disciplines, religion, belief. Character. Love, affection, compassion, sympathy, empathy, helping others, contentment, strength, hope, endurance and , above all, the existence and the supremacy of God. Thank you for all of these We promise not to disappoint you And to pass it to the next generation. God bless your days, years before, now and after. Amen Happy birthday dad
