Daddy
Our Daddy's up in heaven and he's waiting there for us you see.
He would ask us "Are you ready the Lord His face to see?"
No more pain or sorrow up there for Daddy dear.
For he's singing Hallelujah, in that land so bright and fair.
Our Daddy was so patient, so kind beyond degree.
We would want to be more like him, if our prayer would answered be.
We know that Daddy will want each one of us to see,
So be sure that you are ready,
The Lord His face to see.
