Dad

I hear you come home, you're tired but strong

Our kids run to you, right where they belong

You make our whole house feel safe and calm

With a steady heart and a sheltering arm

Loving you is the best part of my life

Watching you father just fills me with pride

Our children see the good that you do

Their guiding light, their strength is in you

Through the sunshine and the shade

You’re the heart of the home we’ve made

You teach them with patience and help them to rise

Bring laughter and wisdom into their lives

You're funny and crazy, protective and fun

A steady shadow out in the sun

Through you they are learning who they can be

Kind, brave, and strong, and truly free

Loving you is the best part of my life

Watching you father just fills me with pride

Our children see the good that you do

Their guiding light, their strength is in you

Through the sunshine and the shade

You’re the heart of the home we’ve made

When they grow up and build lives of their own

They’ll carry your love wherever they roam

Every lesson, memory, and embrace

Will live right within them, through time and space

Loving you is the best part of my life

Watching you father just fills me with pride

I’ll choose you through each passing day

My quiet hero, come what may

You’re the love beneath our family

Our greatest gift, our home, our peace

Through the sunshine and the shade

You’re the heart of the home we’ve made
