"Seeing My Father
In Me"
Last night we brought the children by to visit their grandpa
And it's plain to see their truly a part of him
While we were there their grandma took out some old photographs
Man he sure looked a lot like me back then
I'm seeing my father in me
I guess that's how it's meant to be
And I find I'm more and more like him each day
I notice I walk the way he walks
I notice I talk the way he talks
I'm starting to see my father in me
And today I took my wife for a walk down that old dirt road
Where my daddy took my mom so many times
And we found the time to mention things we never had before
And we shared some thoughts about the family life
Yeah I'm seeing my father in me
I guess that's how it's meant to be
And I find I'm more and more like him each day
I notice I walk the way he walks
I notice I talk the way he talks
I'm starting to see my father in me
And now looking back I can recall the times we disagreed
When I could not take hold of his old fashion way
And the more I tried to prove him wrong the more I proved him right
And now I know why he still stood by me when I went through that stage
I'm seeing my father in me
I guess that's how it's meant to be
And I find I'm more and more like him each day
I notice I walk the way he walks
I notice I talk the way he talks
I'm starting to see my father in me
And I'm happy to see my father in me.

OUR Dad
Who, shall I say, waits for us.
He has always been there.
He promised HE will always be there.
We have His word on it.
What more could a child ask for?
One who will always be there.
Just for us, you and me brother and sister.
WE are all from the same family.
For it is our brothers who wrote it all down.
It is all there in the one book that is about Him.
It says HE knew us even before we were born.
That’s a hard fact to realize with our intellect.
How many of us would give our first-born,
To be treated the way our brother Jesus was.
I wonder how we would have believed some of
The things that young man did while here.
The very thought of being a mother, standing by
Watching this torture and ridicule to her son.
Try to imagine how she must have felt.
Being handed the lifeless, battered body of her son.
But Dad took Him home to wait for all of us.
Just as he waited for his precious lamb,
He waits for us to come home as well.
We can’t help but be excited at the very thought.
Home again with Dad.
