Go On Be Their Daddy
© Harold Vondenstein — 5-02-03

Sweet and innocent
That’s what they are
Sweet and innocent
Never very far

From me
I’m their father
I’m their daddy same as you

I trust you to care for them
And love them as I do

I give you grace
To take my place
In the natural world they are in

I’m with you as with them
To love and guide you

Go on be the daddy
That I am to you
Be the father
That you know

Be the one
Who holds and cherishes them
Be the one
They hold onto

My children
My little children
They’re in your hands
I trust you

My children
Blessed children
Protect them
As I do you

Go on be their daddy
The one they can hold onto
Go on be their daddy
Like the one I am to you
