Tribute To Our Dad

Forever legacy of our Daddy’s faith
Asserts his trust in the Lord’s authority
Tenaciously props his fatherhood* triumphs
Hoisting home midst hardships toward heavenly hope
Earnest to lead our family so eagerly
Readily showing love midst discipline regard
Surely, he is blest Mama’s darling and sweetheart…

Director --- our human coach and driver dearest
Anchoring us, blending well truths and mercy acts
Yeah, he’s not perfect; yet his best is God’s  “Yes.”

*Proverbs 17:6 Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.
