THE PRAYER
I said I’d be there just as fast as I can….
As a million thoughts ran through my mind
Phone hanging from my hand
And I dropped down upon my knees
Head bent hands clasped in prayer
Praying that on angels wings
I would soon be there….
Oh God… please help me make my way
It seems that time is flying by
Can I be there once more to say….
I love you….
To the rock within my life
What a father means to a son
A daughter or a wife…
I clambered out the door
With tears still in my eyes
Knowing that I had to tell
The daughter in his life
And when I got her on the phone
She knew it in my voice
I heard her start to pray aloud
There was no other choice
Oh God… please help me make my way
It seems that time is flying by
Can I be there once more to say….
I love you….
To the rock within my life
What a father means to his little girl
His son and to his wife…
As I ran through the door I knew
That I had come too late
The nurse said that he passed at noon
When I saw my mother bent to pray….
Oh God… please help me make my way
It seems that times been flying by
One last time I got to say….
I love you….
The rock within my life
What a father to our boy and girl
What a husband to this wife…
The best father to our boy and girl
The best husband to this wife….
(Spoken)
I love you my sweetheart
God’s peace
I’ll see you again one day
