The Rock

 
His hands were dirty and sweaty,
Yet he was strong like no other,
He was the head of the family,
Standing tall with my mother.
The guide of my hand,
He held tight to mine with his heart,
In his wisdom and love,
By his side I found my start.
 
The Rock taught me how to stand,
Face my fears and my joys in the light,
The Rock showed me life's a great plan,
Which gave me the strength to stand and fight.
 
The years did add to my height,
As love and pain taught my heart to live,
Yet even when there was not much,
From him I learned how to give.
 Not the perfect man,
He was perfect for my mother and me,
When the world gave only shadows,
He taught my heart to see.
 
The Rock taught me how to stand,
Face my fears and my joys in the light,
The Rock showed me life is a great plan,
Which gave me the strength to stand and fight.

We have watched the years together,
Both with his children and mine,
Generations can grow strong,
Within love and passing of time.
No day the same,
We each would find something new,
Guiding my heart in this way,
Is the way love did shine as it grew.
 
The Rock taught me how to stand,
Face my fears and my joys in the light,
The Rock showed me life is a great plan,
Which gave me the strength to stand and fight.
 
There came a day his hand grew frail,
Knowing all stories have their time,
Now I was to be his rock,
With his hand secure in mine.
Time never ends,
For in love there is no goodbye,
I lean strongly on the Rock of Ages,
Until the day when our souls will fly.

The Rock gave us all His great plan,
Giving vision with his love and light,
For all our hearts will unite again,
Beyond the veil of endless night.
