Representing the God in Heaven,
Being His delegate father on earth,
Bearing His nature and character,
Bending your knees in submissive prayer,
Shouldering His power and authority,
Showcasing His compassion and love,
You carry your family and His on your heart!
Working hard to provide for your own, and others,
You slog night and day, not caring the pain or strain.
Giving up your own dreams for those of others,
You step aside for them to achieve and win theirs.
Desiring and delighting in granting them the best,
You save and sacrifice, your part unnoticed, your tears unseen!
Father dear, rest assured,
Heaven sees your labour,
Earth notes your toil,
Family knows your worth,
Church supports your task,
O Builder and Bolster of the home!
