She knew this was coming
Been through it all before
Who could know better, the
Measures a loving father may
Have to take, than his child
Who can always cause, her
Fathers heart to break
The one who thinks she's
Outgrown her Dads advice,
Now this child has fallen
She's broken up inside, she
Needs her father to help
Her, make it through this
Night
Far from being a baby,
She doesn't shed a tear
As bleak as things are
She knows her Dad is
Always near
She goes to him in the
Quiet of night, says Dad,
I've been such a fool,
I'm sorry that I hurt
You so, please forgive
My selfishness
Now knowing all is forgiven
Dad will make things right
Her eyes grow heavy with
Sleep,they've talked long
Into the night
She reaches out, says Father
Please don't leave just yet
She wraps her arm around
His neck, and whispers in
His ear, Daddy is it OK,
Can I be your little girl?
She smiles, he wraps her
In his arms, says you know
You'll always be, contented
She falls asleep,in the arms
Of Jesus, peaceful as a child
Can be.
