Dear Father,
Before you were a father, you were once a son,
Before you were a leader, you were first lead.
Before you were a provider, you were provided for,
Before you were a teacher, you first had to learn.
Dear Father,
Before your first love, you were already loved,
Before your first house, you had more than a home.
Before your first award, you were the prize of our hearts.
Before your first venture, you would never walk alone.
Dear Father,
Before there were seven, there was only one,
Before bringing us together, there was a change of heart.
Before there were differences, there was understanding.
Before there was fighting, there was forgiveness.
Dear Father, Dear Father, Dear Father.
Dear Father!
Before there can be healing, there must first be trust!
Dear Father!
Before we can be lions, we must first be a pride!
Dear Father!
Before we can be strong, we must first be united!
Dear Father,
Before this comes to an end, there must first be a new beginning.
Dear Father...
Love from a father, should exceed all bounds.
Love from a father, should nourish our souls.
Love from a father, should seek to uplift.
Love from a father, should be, just love.
Dear Father,
Where are you?
