#74 My Daughter's Wedding (A Fathers' Prayer)
My Lord,
My God,
How can it be,
That she's looking at him
As she once looked at me?
Can he know her heart
As I've known her heart?
Can he dry her tears
As I have through the years?
Where have the days gone
When I was her knight,
And dragons b'neath bedsprings
Abandoned their fight?
My Lord,
My God,
I know it must be,
That she now trusts him
As she once trusted me.
Help him love her heart
As I love her heart.
Let him dry her tears
As they walk through the years.
A new day has dawned
And he is her knight.
When dragons ascend,
He must take up the fight.
My Lord,
My God,
I pray let it be,
That they walk with you
As you have with me.
Certain is it that there is no kind of affection so purely angelic as of
a father to a daughter. In love to our wives there is desire; to our sons,
ambition; but to our daughters there is something which there are no words
to express.
-- Joseph Addison
Our daughters are the most precious of our treasures, the dearest
possessions of our homes and the objects of our most watchful love.
-- Margaret E. Sangster
There's something like a line of gold thread running through a man's
words when he talks to his daughter, and gradually over the years it gets to
be long enough for you to pick up in your hands and weave into a cloth that
feels like love itself.
-- John Gregory Brown
