My Dear Son

My Dear Son

 

I am a Christian man and father

With a son very dear to me

And he is bright and growing taller

And no prouder could I be

 

I help him when I can

Though I myself am poor

But I lend a helping hand

With whatever I can afford

 

I wish that I could see him daily

And be there by his side

To help him though I’m crazy

With the challenges in his life

 

I pray that he doesn’t fret

About any minor thing

And that when he's upset

His finds love and comforting

 

He is still very young

With many lessons to learn

But his journey has begun

And the Holy Spirit he discerns

      • Poetic Dan

        Our religions may differ
        But we sing from the same page
        My friend you are a legend
        With the words and love gave

        As I read and felt my own
        Knowing I am not alone
        When we reap what we have sown
        Each fathers love is a home

          Thanks, Dan. Love can make us sing. Song can express our joy.
