Hiding your fear behind a mask of confidence Understanding that it's always best to lead by example You make the rough going easy You make every grey seem cheery Projecting your strengths And keeping your faith You make the rough going easy You make the grey seem cheery Your smile always conceals the pain It is what I always seek for reassurance Dear Father, you may not be able to reduce our burdens But that isn't your aim either Because even if the going isn't always easy Or the grey cheery Your girls have the right heart To persevere

Protecting isn't strengthening
Hiding your fear behind a mask of confidence Understanding that it's always best to lead by example You make the rough going easy You make every grey seem cheery Projecting your strengths And keeping your faith You make the rough going easy You make the grey seem cheery Your smile always conceals the pain It is what I always seek for reassurance Dear Father, you may not be able to reduce our burdens But that isn't your aim either Because even if the going isn't always easy Or the grey cheery Your girls have the right heart To persevere
Thank you Dad! Your little girl owes it all to you :)
