Analysis of Daddy



Hi, Daddy.
Thanks for being with me today.
I miss our talks and holding your hand.
Have I shared my new song with you?
The one about Jesus and His love.
I wrote it special just for you.
I feel so alive when I sing about Jesus' love.
His comfort, peace, and understanding.
I can talk about anything. He always listens.
Imagine the joy on His face as I sing.
Do you see?
Are you proud of me, Daddy?
I am trying so hard to be like you.
Watch me while I run and play.
Are you watching?
I love you Daddy!
Thanks for being with me today!
I love our talks and holding hands.
Bye, Daddy.
