A Prayer For Daddy

Folder: 
Daddy

Dear Daddy, I’m sorry it’s been so long

Since I last came to see you

It’s been so hard since you’ve been gone

Sometimes I can’t believe it’s true



So much has gone on

I don’t know where to start

Since you have been gone

I’ve really searched my heart



I’ve since accepted the Lord

Into my heart and life

I depend on God’s Word

To get me through the pain and strife



There’s something heavy on my heart

And it will be till I die

Not knowing the answer hurts so much

I can either pray or cry



Remember the time I asked about Heaven?

I don’t think you knew what to say

After you died, I received Salvation

And found that there’s only one way



I know about God, He’s first in my life

And I only want His will

When I come to your grave, tears fill my eyes

As I wonder if you’re in Heaven or Hell



It’s too late to witness

And pray for God to save your soul

But back then I could only guess

That Heaven’s where you’d go



I wonder as I stand at your grave

If we’ll ever meet on the Streets of Gold

Or if you fell into that Fiery Blaze

And the Devil caught your soul



Are your feet covered in soot?

Did you only know Christ in your mind?

Or did you miss Heaven by a foot

Because your heart was blind?



Or as you drew in your last breath

Did you open your heart to Christ

And merely miss Eternal Death

To rejoice in Everlasting Life?



It’s Father’s Day again today

And as I stand before your grave

I know it’s already too late to pray

That when you died, you were saved

Happy Father’s Day Daddy, I’m still praying for you!
