I Remember
A Father's Legacy: Nurturing Love and Life Lessons
Lyrics
I remember when, to be you took me by the hand
I have a vivid memory of a time when you guided me into maturity by holding my hand.
And showed me what it meant to become a man
You demonstrated and explained to me the essence of becoming a responsible and mature individual.
Showed me everything I needed to bring
You provided me with all the knowledge and skills necessary for my personal development.
Now I think of you every time I Sing
Whenever I sing, your influence and teachings come to mind.
Amazing grace to have you around
Your presence in my life is like a source of amazing grace, a blessing to have around.
To know you were you there to pick me up when I fail
I appreciate that you were there to support and uplift me during times of failure.
When I was lost with my head in the clouds
During moments of confusion or aimlessness, you guided me with care.
You were the one who Love to me anyhow
You were the one who continued to love and care for me regardless of the circumstances.
Early mornings with a coffee in hand
We shared early mornings together, with you sipping coffee, taking care of necessary tasks for the day.
You would do what was needed to work the land
You were committed to doing whatever was necessary to cultivate the land and ensure its productivity.
There was grass to mow snow to push
Tasks like mowing the grass and clearing snow were part of the responsibilities you handled.
The wood had to make its way out from the bush I'd hear you sing
Even in challenging moments, like getting wood from the bush, I would hear you singing.
Amazing grace to have you around
Your presence continues to be a source of amazing grace in my life.
To know you were you there to pick me up When I fell
You were there to lift me up whenever I faced a downfall or failure.
When I was lost with my head in the clouds
In times of confusion or uncertainty, you were the one who brought clarity and direction.
You were the one who turned it all around
You played a pivotal role in turning challenging situations into positive outcomes.
I'll see you on the other side
I anticipate meeting you again in the afterlife or another realm.
I'll be there right on time
I will be there punctually when the time comes for our reunion.
The one summer when you taught me how to fly
During a specific summer, you taught me valuable lessons, perhaps metaphorically represented as flying.
How to look another man straight in the eye
You taught me the importance of facing others confidently and directly.
Your way was tender, you taught me to remember
Your approach to life was gentle, and you instilled in me the importance of remembering the power of love.
That love was the way back home
You emphasized that love is the pathway leading back to one's true home.
