“The blessing” is the greatest gift
my precious dad gave me.
It said that I am special,
that the Lord said I should be.

Twas a compass for my future
pointing me to godly goals
guiding me to be most cautious
on the journey of my soul.

Dad’s blessing said, “You’re gifted!
Greg, my son, you’re most unique.
I see in you potential
in the interests that you seek!”

Dad said he’d always love me,
that there’s nothing I could do
that would cause him to rescind his love
even when my friends are few.

Dad’s blessing gave me courage.
Through his words I felt his pride.
And in Dad’s words I heard God speak
saying He was on my side.
