The Loving Father

the loving father guides us and strengthens us every single day
if we take a wrong path  we hear his voice gently say
my child walk this way,
the loving father comforts us when we are in need
we know we are in safe hands when we always let him take the lead,
he is the one who always understands
he keeps us close to his heart and hold us in his hands,
the loving father is everything you imagine him to be
he is always willing to listen to you and to me,
no matter if i am happy, sad or just feeling a little low
there is no other place that i'd rather go,
if you're in a dillema and not sure what to do
the loving father is the one who will help you get through,
the loving father will turn your sorrow into laughter
he will make you dance with glee
God is the loving father and the loving father he always will be. Amen.

Hope everyone reads this, Diane. Appreciate and thank not only our heavenly Father, but also the ones who raised us. We only have them for a short time here on earth and when they are gone, any quarrels you might have had with them will seem insignificant. An excellent dedication to the Soup Dads! Love, Carolyn
