Oh,
Papa
Kay
Twenty-seven
years,
you
held
the
light
for
me
You
are
my
rock,
my
everything
Since
the
day
mama
went
to
be
with
the
Lord
I
was
just
a
child,
but
you
gave
me
your
word
You
didn't
let
me
stumble,
you
didn't
let
me
fall
You
carried
every
burden,
you
answered
every
call
Twenty-seven
seasons
of
sacrifice
and
grace
I
see
my
whole
world
reflected
in
your
face
Oh,
Papa
Kay,
you
are
my
hero
and
my
king
You
gave
me
love
and
everything
that
life
could
bring
Through
the
lonely
nights,
you
were
my
guiding
star
I'm
so
blessed
to
know
exactly
who
you
are
If
I
had
to
choose
a
father
in
another
life
again
Iā
d
choose
you,
Papa,
until
the
very
end
Your
patience
is
a
river
that
never
runs
dry
You
wiped
away
the
tears
every
time
that
I
would
cry
Your
kindness
is
a
lesson
that
Iā
ll
always
keep
inside
With
you,
my
dear
father,
I
have
nothing
left
to
hide
You
did
the
work
of
two,
with
a
spirit
so
divine
Iā
m
grateful
for
your
heartbeat,
and
that
youā
re
forever
mine
