Grandfather

It seems like only yesterday
Our lives were just beginning.
Your love for me never failed,
Our hearts continually mending.
It is strange to watch the time fly
Before my very eyes,
Which reminds me of the blessing,
That i have you in my life.
To have yet to feel the touch
That's as gentle as your hand
Our bond that strengthens each day
As my life continues to change,
Reflections of your love remains in me
You have pointed out the path
And led me along the way;
The wisdom you have planted,
I hold it dearly
You sheltered me through childhood
And saw me through today,
Taught me of the Lord above,
About faith, and how to pray.
One day we'll all be in heaven
Dancing on the throne,
Praising God for giving me
A family like we've never known.
No matter where my life may go,
I will trust the Lord above
And through it all always thank him for my grandparents' love.
