Talking about a special occasion
That comes around every year,
That children, young and old
Get mushy, calling Father "Dear"
The third Sunday in June,
That special American date,
That the children America
Set aside to celebrate
An original idea by
A woman named Sonora Dodd
Confirmed by Richard Nixon's
Official Presidential nod.
Now there are good Fathers,
And not so good ones,
Which is equally true of sons.
In the Bible is recorded
Guide lines for being
A successful Father
But if ignored, you
Will be a failure.
Such as Eli, a Priest of Israel,
Who is a very bad Daddy example;
In contrast, on the other hand,
Is described the model of Daddies
Father Abraham.
(Who was...)
A tremendous type of God,
Who offered up his only begotten son,
Who picked up the paycheck
For our sin (The wages of sin is death)
(Listen to me, all you fathers!)
Fatherhood is not only an honor,
But also a serious responsibility.
And should never be entered into lightly,
So rear your children spiritually.
In the admonition of the Lord,
To live and conduct themselves
In obedience to His Word.
