Fathers are wonderful people
Too little understood,
And we do not sing their praises
As often as we should.
![](family/dadsicon4.gif)
And Father struggles daily
To live up to his image
As protector and provider
And hero of the scrimmage
![](family/dadsicon4.gif)
And perhaps that is the reason
We sometimes get the notion
That fathers are not subject
To the thing we call emotion,
![](family/dadsicon4.gif)
But if you look inside Dad's heart,
Where no one else can see,
You'll find he's sentimental
And as soft as he can be
![](family/dadsicon4.gif)
Fathers are just wonderful
In a million different ways,
And they merit loving compliments
And accolades of praise,
![](family/dadsicon4.gif)
For the only reason Dad aspires
To fortune and success
Is to make the family proud of him
And to bring them happiness
![](family/dadsicon4.gif)
And like Our Heavenly Father,
He's a guardian and a guide,
Someone that we can count on
To be always on our side.
