Verse 1
My father was a young man
When he rocked me in his arms
And through the years we watched each other grow
Looking back I think the greatest lessons that he taught me
Were the ones he let me learn all on my own
And the older that I get
The more I understand
Just how much of who he is
Has led to who I am

Chorus
He’s my father
He’s my father
And there’s nothing I would trade you
For this journey we’ve been through
He’s my father
He’s my father
Each day I am reminded
I am close enough to see
Everything a father’s love should be

Verse 2
I’ve watched the way he worships
How he lives what he believes
A faith in God that guides each step he takes
I have seen him face the storms and somehow come out stronger
And I know that heaven listens when he prays
So I treasure what I have
I know that I’ve been blessed
Every day I’m more convinced
I’m learning from the best

Bridge
I can’t outgrow his love
I can’t outreach his heart
I can’t explain it any other way
Except to say
