Oh, Father

Oh, father, up in Heaven I wish you to just know Your life, it was my guide Your breath, the winds that blow You taught me how to stand When fallen, to stand again You molded me in clay from you And made me a proud man Oh, father, up in Heaven On this day I declare My love for you, it still exists And will so, everywhere I take it with me everyday Reflect upon it, too Because you gave me oh so much I’ll always have love for you Oh, father, up in Heaven You’ll always be my dad The world’s, yes, very best That anyone has had I never can be prouder Than to carry on your way Oh, father, up in Heaven Have a Happy Father’s Day
